<i>Malassezia pachydermatis</i> Acquires Resistance to Polyenes in the Laboratory Model. [PDF]
This study presents a model investigation into the development of tolerance to polyene antifungal drugs (nystatin and natamycin) in strains of Malassezia pachydermatis. This species, commonly associated with external ear canal infections in dogs, has emerged as increasingly significant in the broader context of growing fungal resistance to treatment ...

Methodological Issues in Antifungal Susceptibility Testing of Malassezia pachydermatis [PDF]
Reference methods for antifungal susceptibility testing of yeasts have been developed by the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) and the European Committee on Antibiotic Susceptibility Testing (EUCAST). These methods are intended to test the main pathogenic yeasts that cause invasive infections, namely Candida spp.
