Echinocandin resistance in Candida is a great concern, as the echinocandin drugs are recommended as first-line therapy for patients with invasive candidiasis. Here, we review recent advances in our understanding of the epidemiology, underlying mechanisms, methods for detection and clinical implications.Echinocandin resistance has emerged over the ...

Rapid Detection of Echinocandins Resistance by MALDI-TOF MS in Candida parapsilosis Complex
Mass spectrometry by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) was used to identify and differentiate the pattern of susceptibility of clinical isolates of Candida parapsilosis complex. 17 C.

Breakthrough Candidemia Due to Multidrug-Resistant Candida glabrata during Prophylaxis with a Low Dose of Micafungin [PDF]
We identified a case of breakthrough candidemia in a 25-year-old patient receiving micafungin prophylaxis (50 mg/day). Five Candida glabrata isolates were obtained from blood cultures and were classified as multidrug-resistant isolates, since all of them
