Using (1,3)‐β‐D‐glucan concentrations in serum to monitor the response of azole therapy in patients with eumycetoma caused by Madurella mycetomatis

Mycoses
Abstract Introduction (1,3)‐β‐D‐glucan is a panfungal biomarker secreted by many fungi, including Madurella mycetomatis, the main causative agent of eumycetoma. Previously we demonstrated that (1,3)‐β‐D‐glucan was present in serum of patients with eumycetoma.
