In Vitro Activities of Amphotericin B, Caspofungin, Itraconazole, Posaconazole, and Voriconazole against 45 Clinical Isolates of Zygomycetes: Comparison of CLSI M38-A, Sensititre YeastOne, and the Etest

Year: 2006

Type: article

Abstract: We evaluated the activities of amphotericin B, itraconazole, voriconazole, caspofungin, and posaconazole against zygomycetes by CLSI M38-A, Etest and Sensititre. The most active drug was posaconazole, followed by amphotericin B and itraconazole. The correlation of the Etest and Sensititre with CLSI M38-A was moderate for posaconazole but poor for the others.
