Correlation of Neo-Sensitabs tablet diffusion assay results on three different agar media with CLSI broth microdilution M27-A2 and disk diffusion M44-A results for testing susceptibilities of Candida spp. and Cryptococcus neoformans to amphotericin B, caspofungin, fluconazole, itraconazole, and voriconazole.
We compared the Neo-Sensitabs tablet assay to both reference M27-A2 broth microdilution and M44-A disk diffusion methods for testing susceptibilities of 110 isolates of Candida spp. and Cryptococcus neoformans to amphotericin B, caspofungin, fluconazole, itraconazole, and voriconazole. Neo-Sensitabs assay inhibition zone diameters in millimeters on three agars (Mueller-Hinton agar supplemented ...
متن کاملComparison of Neo-Sensitabs tablet diffusion assay with CLSI broth microdilution M38-A and disk diffusion methods for testing susceptibility of filamentous fungi with amphotericin B, caspofungin, itraconazole, posaconazole, and voriconazole.
We compared the Neo-Sensitabs tablet assay to both reference M38-A broth microdilution and disk diffusion methods for testing the susceptibility of 183 filamentous isolates to amphotericin B, caspofungin, itraconazole, posaconazole, and voriconazole. Neo-Sensitabs and disk assay inhibition zone diameters, in millimeters, were obtained on nonsupplemented Mueller-Hinton agar at 16 to 48 h. The re...
متن کاملActivities of amphotericin B, fluconazole and voriconazole against Candida bloodstream isolates determined by broth microdilution and disk diffusion methods
Objective: Invasive fungal infections caused by Candida species have increased significantly. Candidemia is not only associated with a mortality, but also extends the duration of hospital stay and increases the cost for medical care. Although, the clinical presentations of the patients with candidemia caused by Candida albicans and non-albicans Candida species are indistinguishable, the suscept...
متن کاملEvaluation of the Neo-Sensitabs diffusion method for determining the antifungal susceptibilities of Cryptococcus gattii isolates, using three different agar media.
The Neo-Sensitabs diffusion method was evaluated for determining the antifungal susceptibilities of 30 Cryptococcus gattii isolates to amphotericin B (AMB), fluconazole (FLC), itraconazole (ITC) and voriconazole (VRC). Three different culture media, Müeller-Hinton (MH), RPMI 1640 (RPMI) and Antibiotic medium 3 (AM3), all supplemented with 2% of glucose and 0.5 microg/ml of methylene blue, were ...
متن کاملSusceptibility pattern of Candida albicans isolated from Iranian patients to antifungal agents
Background and Purpose: Candidiasis is a major fungal infection, and Candida albicans is the major cause of infections in humans. The Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) developed new breakpoints for antifungal agents against C. albicans. In this multi-center study, we aimed to determine the drug susceptibility profile of C. albicans, isolated from Iranian population according...
