Abstract

We analyzed susceptibility to anidulafungin of yeasts clinical strains of Candida (14 species), Cryptococcus (1 species), Geotrichum (1 species), Rhodotorula (1 species) and Saccharomyces (1 species). We revealed high anidulafungin activity against Candida spp., both common species and rare pathogens of candidiasis. It was found that over 99 % of Candida strains do not have an acquired resistance mechanisms to anidulafungin (microbiological criteria). The anidulafungin is not active against strains of Cryptococcus neoformans and Rhodotorula mucilaginosa.

Highlights

  • We analyzed susceptibility to anidulafungin of yeasts clinical strains of Candida (14 species), Cryptococcus (1 species), Geotrichum (1 species), Rhodotorula (1 species) and Saccharomyces (1 species)

  • We revealed high anidulafungin activity against Candida spp., both common species and rare pathogens of candidiasis

  • Установленные значения минимальных подавляющих концентраций (МПК) анидулафунгина для G. candidum (0,03–0,06 мкг/мл) и S. cerevisiae (0,12 мкг/мл) не предполагают наличие устойчивости in vitro к препарату у протестированных штаммов данных видов грибов и, напротив, могут свидетельствовать об их чувствительности in vitro

Summary

Introduction

We analyzed susceptibility to anidulafungin of yeasts clinical strains of Candida (14 species), Cryptococcus (1 species), Geotrichum (1 species), Rhodotorula (1 species) and Saccharomyces (1 species). Чувствительность к анидулафунгину была протестирована у 168 клинических штаммов дрожжевых грибов следующих родов: Candida (39 штаммов C. albicans, 4 – C. dubliniensis, 2 – C. famata, 32 – C. glabrata, 3 – C. guilliermondii, 4 – C. kefyr, 24 – C. krusei, 3 – C. lipolytica, 2 – C. lusitaniae, 1 – C. norvegensis, 10 – C. parapsilosis, 2 – C. rugosa, 17 – C. tropicalis, 2 – C. zeylanoides); Cryptococcus (6 – Cr. neoformans); Geotrichum (3 – G. candidum); Rhodotorula (10 – R. mucilaginosa); Saccharomyces (4 – S. cerevisiae).
