In vitro antifungal susceptibilities of Scopulariopsis isolates
Abstract
MICs and minimum fungicidal concentrations of amphotericin B, miconazole, itraconazole, ketoconazole, fluconazole, and flucytosine against 17 isolates of Scopulariopsis spp. were determined by a broth microdilution method. All the isolates were resistant to itraconazole, fluconazole, and flucytosine, and amphotericin B, miconazole, and ketoconazole MICs were low for only a few.
