Molecular identification and in-vitro antifungal susceptibility testing of Candida species isolated from patients with onychomycosis
Background and Purpose: Candida species are the most opportunistic fungi affecting the nails and resulting in onychomycosis. In this study, we identified and evaluated in-vitro susceptibility of the recovered isolates against fluconazole (FLC), voriconazole (VRC), and clotrimazole (CLT) using the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) M27-A3 document. Materials and Method...
متن کاملIdentification and Antifungal Susceptibility Testing of Candida species isolated from Bronchoalveolar Lavage sampl
The frequency of fungal infections in immunocompromised patients, particularly by Candida species, has increased in recent years. Colonization by Candida species in respiratory tract in susceptible hosts may play an important role to precede disseminated candidiasis. This study was designed to identify Candida species from bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) samples and determination of antifungal sus...
متن کاملComparison of three methods for in vitro susceptibility testing of Candida species with flucytosine.
Optimal methods for susceptibility testing of Candida spp. with flucytosine have not been determined. Breakpoints were recommended in 1984, but never validated. In this study, we compared the 1984 recommended macrodilution broth method (using an 80% endpoint) with a modification of the more recent NCCLS-recommended microdilution broth method with three endpoints-spectrophotometric 50% and 80% a...
متن کاملCandida Species Isolated from Various Clinical Samples and Their Susceptibility Patterns to Antifungals
Candida is an asexual, diploid, dimorphic fungus that is present on human body and his environment. Nowadays the number of patients, who are immunocompromised, aged, receiving prolonged antibacterial and aggressive cancer chemotherapy or undergoing invasive surgical procedures and organ transplantation, is on increase, and therefore candidiasis emerged itself as an alarming opportunistic dise...
متن کاملon the comparison of keyword and semantic-context methods of learning new vocabulary meaning
the rationale behind the present study is that particular learning strategies produce more effective results when applied together. the present study tried to investigate the efficiency of the semantic-context strategy alone with a technique called, keyword method. to clarify the point, the current study seeked to find answer to the following question: are the keyword and semantic-context metho...
