Broth dilution antifungal susceptibility testing was performed according to the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) M38-A2(25 ). In total, four types of antifungal agents were tested, including amphotericin B (CAS: 1397-89-3; Bio Basic, Inc.), caspofungin acetate (CAS: 179463-17-3; Beijing Jin Ming Biotechnology Co., Ltd.), fluconazole (CAS: 86386-73-4; Rhawn Reagent) and fluorocytosine (CAS: 2022-85-7; Rhawn Reagent). Different reagent grades were tested in the following concentrations according the manufacturers' instructions: amphotericin B 0.03-16 µg/ml, caspofungin 0.03-16 µg/ml, fluconazole 0.12-64 µg/ml, fluorocytosine 0.12-64 µg/ml. The susceptibility of this fungus to each drug was determined.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
