Candida norvegensis: a fluconazole-resistant species [PDF]

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 1997
Candida norvegensis has been an unusual cause of infections in humans. In Norway this species was isolated from eight patients from 1990 to 1996 and was of probable pathogenic significance in four of them. All isolates were resistant to fluconazole. The same was true for two C. norvegensis isolates from before 1940, and it is therefore assumed that the

Hsp90 governs dispersion and drug resistance of fungal biofilms [PDF]

, 2011
Fungal biofilms are a major cause of human mortality and are recalcitrant to most treatments due to intrinsic drug resistance. These complex communities of multiple cell types form on indwelling medical devices and their eradication often requires ...

Fluconazole-resistant Candida parapsilosis: A new emerging threat in the fungi arena

Frontiers in Fungal Biology, 2022
Candida parapsilosis is a leading cause of invasive candidiasis in southern Europe, Latin America and Asia. C. parapsilosis has been mostly considered susceptible to triazoles, but fluconazole resistance is on the rise in some countries.

Vaginal yeasts in the era of "over the counter" antifungals [PDF]

, 2000
OBJECTIVE: To establish whether there has been any rise in the prevalence of non-albicans Candida species isolated from vaginal swabs since the introduction of “over the counter” antifungal treatments.

Biofilm formation by fluconazole-resistant Candida albicans strains is inhibited by fluconazole [PDF]

Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 2007
The fungal pathogen Candida albicans forms biofilms on implanted medical devices, resulting in infections with high mortality. Fully developed biofilms, which are adherent communities of microorganisms, characteristically exhibit high resistance to antimicrobial drugs, making treatment of device-associated infection problematic.

Synergistic Effects of Amiodarone and Fluconazole on Candida tropicalis Resistant to Fluconazole [PDF]

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2013
ABSTRACT There have recently been significant increases in the prevalence of systemic invasive fungal infections. However, the number of antifungal drugs on the market is limited in comparison to the number of available antibacterial drugs. This fact, coupled with the increased frequency of cross-resistance, makes it necessary to
