چکیده

Voriconazole concentrations were determined in autopsy samples of eight patients who had been treated for a median of 7 days (interquartile range [IQR], 5 days). Voriconazole penetrates well into various tissues, with median levels of 6.26 μg/g ((interquartile range [IQR], 7.87 μg/g) in the lung, 3.41 μg/g (IQR, 16.72 μg/g) in the brain, 6.89 μg/g (IQR, 24.16 μg/g) in the liver, 6.47 μg/g (IQR, 6.19 μg/g) in the kidneys, 5.60 μg/g (IQR, 11.49 μg/g) in the spleen, and 7.55 μg/g (IQR, 16.91 μg/g) in the myocardium.

Tissue Distribution of 125I-human Nonspecific Polyclonal IgG in Normal and Induced Inflammation Mice

Many different radiolabeled antibodies have been used for radioimmunotherapy and radioimmunoscintigraphy of human diseases in animal experiments. In order to study the in vivo tissue distribution of antibody, we labeled human nonspecific polyclonal IgG with Na125I using chloramine-T method. An animal model was developed by injecting turpentine in the posterior left thigh of Balb/c mice. Tissue ...

The Phenotypic variation of Candida albicans and susceptibility to fluconazole and voriconazole

Candida albicans is the most frequent opportunistic fungal agent in human being. One of its virulence factors is phenotypic switching. In this study, we investigated the susceptibility of different phenotypes of C. albicans, obtained from clinical specimens, to fluconazole (FLZ) and voriconazole (VRZ) with microdilution reference method. In this study, 281 C. albicans of six different phenotype...

Intracranial Fungal Granuloma Mimicking Neoplastic Lesion: Diagnostic Dilemma and Role of Voriconazole as Treatment Strategy

ABSTRACT Fungal infections of the central nervous system (CNS) usually present as subacute meningitis or intracranial space occupying lesion with mass effect on surrounding structures and consequent focal neurological deficits. Intracranial fungal granulomas are often misdiagnosed clinically and radiologically as neoplastic lesions.  Biopsy of the lesion is the only reliable technique to estab...
