SHINING A SPOTLIGHT ON AFRICAN RESEARCH

Antifungal Susceptibilities of Cryptococcus neoformans

Emerging Infectious Diseases, Volume 10, No. 1, Year 2004

Susceptibility profiles of medically important fungi in less-developed countries remain uncharacterized. We measured the MICs of amphotericin B, 5-flucytosine, fluconazole, itraconazole, and ketoconazole for Cryptococcus neoformans clinical isolates from Thailand, Malawi, and the United States and found no evidence of resistance or MIC profile differences among the countries.
