Susceptibility profile of 29 clinical isolates of Rhodotorula spp. and literature review.
OBJECTIVE In vitro susceptibility results of 29 clinical isolates of Rhodotorula spp. were analysed. In addition, the susceptibility profile of another 102 Rhodotorula isolates was reviewed. METHODS The review included studies using antifungal susceptibility testing reference procedures or commercial methods exhibiting high correlation rates with reference procedures (Etest and Sensititre Yea...
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...
متن کاملRisk of fungemia due to Rhodotorula and antifungal susceptibility testing of Rhodotorula isolates.
Rhodotorula infections occur among patients with immunosuppression and/or central venous catheters. Using standardized methods (NCCLS M27-A), we determined the antifungal susceptibilities of 10 Rhodotorula bloodstream infection isolates. Patient information was collected for clinical correlation. The MICs of amphotericin B and posaconazole were the lowest, and the MICs of triazoles and echinoca...
متن کاملIn vitro susceptibility of Aspergillus spp. clinical isolates to albendazole.
The in vitro antifungal activity of albendazole, a benzimidazole widely used as an antihelmintic drug in humans, was investigated and assessed for its activity against Aspergillus spp. Forty-eight isolates, representing the most frequent species found in human pathology [Aspergillus fumigatus (n = 27), Aspergillus flavus (n = 10), Aspergillus terreus (n = 7), Aspergillus nidulans (n = 3) and As...
متن کاملPrevalence and Fluconazole Susceptibility Profile of Candida spp. Clinical Isolates in a Brazilian Tertiary Hospital in Minas Gerais, Brazil.
Candidiasis has become an important concern for clinical practice, especially with the increasing incidence of immunocompromised patients. In this scenario, the development resistance to fluconazole presents a challenge for treating these opportunistic infections. The aim of this study was to evaluate some epidemiology features of Candida infections in a Brazilian University Hospital using data...
