Antifungal Susceptibility Testing: Clinical Laboratory and Standards Institute (CLSI) Methods
G.S. Hall (ed.), Interactions of Yeasts, Moulds, and Antifungal Agents: How to Detect Resistance, DOI 10.1007/978-1-59745-134-5_2, © Springer Science+Business Media, LLC 2012 Abstract Antifungal susceptibility testing has become an important tool for physicians faced with making diffi cult treatment decisions regarding treatment of patients with fungal infections. The Clinical Laboratory and St...
متن کاملCandidiasis in Pediatrics; Identification and In vitro Antifungal Susceptibility of the Clinical Isolates
Background Candida species are normal microflora of oral cavity, vagina, and gastrointestinal tract. They are the third most prevalent cause of pediatric health care–associated bloodstream fungal infection. This study aimed to provide an epidemiological feature of candidiasis and also presents an antifungal susceptibility profile of clinical Candida iso...
متن کاملDiversity and antifungal susceptibility of Norwegian Candida glabrata clinical isolates
BACKGROUND Increasing numbers of immunocompromised patients have resulted in greater incidence of invasive fungal infections with high mortality. Candida albicans infections dominate, but during the last decade, Candida glabrata has become the second highest cause of candidemia in the United States and Northern Europe. Reliable and early diagnosis, together with appropriate choice of antifungal...
متن کاملAutonomic-mediated immunomodulation and potential clinical relevance.
Eduardo E. Benarroch, MD There is an active bidirectional communication between the immune system and the nervous system. Cytokines released from immune cells provide signals to neurons of the hypothalamus and brainstem, which trigger endocrine and autonomic responses that, in turn, inhibit the immune response. Both the sympathetic and the vagal efferent pathways participate in this anti-inflam...
متن کاملAntifungal susceptibility profile of clinical Fusarium spp. isolates identified by molecular methods.
OBJECTIVES To analyse the susceptibility pattern of a collection of Fusarium clinical isolates. METHODS The antifungal susceptibility pattern of 67 isolates of Fusarium was analysed. Strains were identified by morphological and molecular methods by means of sequencing elongation factor alpha. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS Six different species were identified. Fusarium solani was the most frequen...
