Abstract
ABSTRACTThein vitroactivities of 11 antifungal drugs against 68ScopulariopsisandMicroascusstrains were investigated. Amphotericin B, 5-fluorocytosine, fluconazole, itraconazole, ketoconazole, miconazole, posaconazole, voriconazole, and ciclopirox showed no or poor antifungal effect. The best activities were exhibited by terbinafine and caspofungin, where the MIC and MEC (minimal effective concentration) ranges were 0.0313 to >16 μg/ml and 0.125 to 16 μg/ml, respectively. The MIC and MEC modes were both 1 µg/ml for terbinafine and caspofungin; the MIC50and MEC50were 1 µg/ml for both drugs, whereas the MIC90and MEC90were 4 µg/ml and 16 µg/ml, respectively.
