Multisite reproducibility of colorimetric broth microdilution method for antifungal susceptibility testing of yeast isolates.
MICs of fluconazole and amphotericin B were determined independently for 100 coded yeast isolates by each of six laboratories to determine reproducibility of results by using a colorimetric oxidation-reduction-based broth microdilution test. In addition, each site tested five quality control isolates on at least four different occasions during the study. Results agreed within a three-dilution r...
متن کاملAntifungal Susceptibility Testing of Malassezia spp. with an Optimized Colorimetric Broth Microdilution Method.
Malassezia is a genus of lipid-dependent yeasts. It is associated with common skin diseases such as pityriasis versicolor and atopic dermatitis and can cause systemic infections in immunocompromised individuals. Owing to the slow growth and lipid requirements of these fastidious yeasts, convenient and reliable antifungal drug susceptibility testing assays for Malassezia spp. are not widely avai...
متن کاملMultisite Reproducibility of the Broth Microdilution Method for 1 Susceptibility Testing of Nocardia species 2 3 Running Title : Multisite Reproducibility Study of Nocardia MIC Testing 4 5
26 Antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) of clinical isolates of Nocardia is recommended to 27 detect resistance to commonly used antimicrobial agents; such testing is complicated by 28 difficulties in inoculum preparation and test interpretation. In this study, six laboratories 29 performed repetitive broth microdilution testing on single strains of Nocardia brasiliensis, 30 Nocardia cyri...
متن کاملComparison of disk diffusion method and broth microdilution method for antifungal susceptibility testing of dermatophytes.
The use of the agar diffusion Neo-Sensitabs method to determine antifungal susceptibility of 59 isolates of dermatophytes, namely Epidermophyton floccosum, Microsporum canis, M. gypseum, Trichophyton mentagrophytes, T. rubrum and T. tonsurans to Clotrimazole (CLZ), Itraconazole (ITZ) and Terbinafine (TBF) is described. Results obtained are compared to the minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC)...
متن کاملAntifungal susceptibility of 44 clinical isolates of Fusarium species determined by using a broth microdilution method.
The MICs and minimum fungicidal concentrations of amphotericin B, natamycin, miconazole, itraconazole, and flucytosine against 17 isolates of Fusarium solani, 14 isolates of Fusarium moniliforme, 10 isolates of Fusarium oxysporum, and 3 isolates of Fusarium semitectum were determined by a broth microdilution method. Amphotericin B and natamycin were the most active agents tested and failed to s...
