Trends in antifungal susceptibility of Candida species--one year observation.
In the past years opportunistic fungal infections have seriously increased, mainly in immunocompromised patients. The aim of the study was to determine the prevalence of yeast-like fungi in invasive candidiasis and to estimate its susceptibility to chosen antifungal agents. One hundred and sixty strains of yeast-like fungi were cultured from various clinical material: samples from lower respira...
متن کاملMolecular 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 کاملEpidemiology and antifungal susceptibility of Candida species in a tertiary care hospital, Kolkata, India
Background and Purpose: The incidence of fungal infection as well as candidemia has increased significantly, contributing to morbidity and mortality in the developed countries. The alarming increase in infections with multidrug resistant bacteria is due to overuse of a broad spectrum antimicrobials, which leads to over growth of Candida spp.; thus, enhancing its opportunity to cause the disease...
متن کاملSpecies distribution and in vitro antifungal susceptibility patterns of Candida
Introduction: Due to advance in medical and surgical management nosocomial fungal infection rate has been increased. Recently Candididiasis has become one of the major fungal infections among hospitalized patients. Several Candida species can give rise to same clinical presentations but their antifungal susceptibility patterns may be different. The aim of the study is species !"#$ %&'$ (#)(*)+'...
متن کاملAntifungal susceptibility to azoles drugs in Candida species isolated from patients with onychomycosis
Background and Aim: Onychomycosis is an infection caused by yeast, filamentous and non-filamentous fungi, due to diverse conditions. This study aimed to investigate the pattern of azole susceptibility of candidate species isolated from Iranian patients in Tehran. Methods: After sampling from patients, identification of the isolated strains were performed with Candida chrom agar medium and PC...
