Comparison of microdilution and broth dilution techniques for the susceptibility testing of yeasts to 5-fluorocytosine and amphotericin B
Abstract
Microdilution and broth dilution techniques were compared for the susceptibility testing of 50 clinical yeast isolates to 5-fluorocytosine and amphotericin B. Good correlation between methods was obtained with all isolates except Cryptococcus neoformans.
