Abstract

ABSTRACT We tested the activities of anidulafungin and other antifungal agents against clinical isolates of different fungal species. For Candida species, high sessile MIC 90 s (SMIC 90 s) were obtained for fluconazole, voriconazole, and amphotericin B, whereas the anidulafungin SMIC 90 s were very low, as were those for caspofungin. Comparatively, for Aspergillus species, higher SMIC 90 values were obtained not only for amphotericin B and voriconazole but also for the echinocandins.
