In Vitro Antifungal Susceptibility of Cladophialophora carrionii, Agent of Human Chromoblastomycosis.
Abstract
A global collection of Cladophialophora carrionii (n = 81) was tested against nine antifungal drugs. MIC(90) of all strains were in increasing order: itraconazole and posaconazole (0.063 μg/ml), terbinafine (0.125 μg/ml), isavuconazole and voriconazole (0.25 μg/ml), caspofungin (2 μg/ml), micafungin (4 μg/ml), amphotericin B (8 μg/ml) and fluconazole (64 μg/ml).
