title: Antifungal susceptibility of 596 Aspergillus fumigatus strains isolated from outdoor air, hospital air, and clinical samples: analysis by site of isolation.
abstract: We analyzed the activities of six antifungal drugs (amphotericin B, itraconazole, voriconazole, posaconazole, caspofungin, and micafungin) against 596 Aspergillus fumigatus strains isolated from outdoor air, hospital air, and clinical samples. We did not find differences among the susceptibilities by site of isolation.
