In vitro antifungal susceptibilities of five species of sporothrix.
Ninety-two isolates belonging to five species of the Sporothrix schenckii complex were tested in vitro against 12 antifungal agents, using a reference microdilution method. There were significant differences among the species; Sporothrix brasiliensis was the species that showed the best response to antifungals, and S. mexicana had the worst response. In general, terbinafine was the most active ...
متن کاملCandida Species Biofilms’ Antifungal Resistance
Candida infections (candidiasis) are the most prevalent opportunistic fungal infection on humans and, as such, a major public health problem. In recent decades, candidiasis has been associated to Candida species other than Candida albicans. Moreover, biofilms have been considered the most prevalent growth form of Candida cells and a strong causative agent of the intensification of antifungal re...
متن کاملAntifungal drug resistance in Candida species.
Invasive Candida infections are well established infectious entities of immunocompromised or critically ill patients and are characterised by high morbidity and mortality. Owing to the common eukaryotic structure of fungi and humans, a limited number of antifungal drugs is available for therapeutic purposes. In this unsatisfactory scenario, the emergence of drug resistance represents an importa...
متن کاملImpact of new antifungal breakpoints on antifungal resistance in Candida species.
We reviewed our antifungal susceptibility data for micafungin, anidulafungin, fluconazole, and voriconazole against Candida species and compared resistance rates determined by the previous and recently revised CLSI antifungal breakpoints. With the new breakpoints, resistance was significantly increased for micafungin (from 0.8% to 7.6%), anidulafungin (from 0.9% to 7.3%), and voriconazole (from...
متن کاملAn Overview on Tuberculosis
بیماری سل یک عفونت باکتریایی مزمن است که توسط مایکوباکتریوم توبرکلوزیس ایجاد شده و توسط تشکیل گرانولوما در بافتهای آلوده مشخص می گردد. شایعترین مکان بروز بیماری، ریه ها می باشند. هر چند که سایر ارگانها نیز ممکن است، درگیر بیماری شوند. سل یک بیماری جدید و ناشناخته نیست. این بیماری در گذشته به عنوان کشنده شماره یک در ایالات متحده محسوب می شد و اکنون نیز به عنوان یک عامل مهم مرگ در کل جهان مطرح است.
