[Minimum inhibitory concentrations of various antifungal agents against Basidiomycetes clinical isolates].
The basidiomycete yeasts are often isolated from clinical samples. A minimal inhibiting concentrations (MIC) of ten antifungals of different groups--azols, allilamines, polyens etc.--against isolates of Rhodotorula, Cryptococcus [symbol: see text] Trichosporon yeasts genera were estimated. No one of these cultures was sensitive to azoles at concentrations 0-256 mcg/ml. A vitality of cultures after incubation during 10 days with antifungals was investigated. Miramistin was the most potent fungicidal agent against all cultures.
