Cilofungin showed good in vitro activity against Candida albicans. Candida tropicalis and Candida glabrata (90% minimal inhibitory concentration [MIC] 3.2 μg/mL) but was inactive against other Candida species. When testing the susceptibility of cilofungin, 5-flucytosine and amphotericin B at the two centres, approximately 90% of the Candida strains had MICs differing by fourfold or less. However, when testing susceptibility of ketoconazole, only 51% of the Candida strains had MIC differences fourfold or less. MIC susceptibility testing with cilofungin, 5-flucytosine and amphotericin B in saam-f medium is reproducible.Attribution 4.0 Internationalhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/Article2018-05-06enCopyright © 1992 Hindawi Publishing Corporation.
