摘要：
In vitro susceptibilities of Scedosporium apiospermum isolates recovered from clinical and environmental samples in Nigeria were tested against ten conventional antifungal agents, namely: amphotericin B, nystatin, flucytosine, itraconazole, posaconazole, fluconazole, voriconazole, micafungin, ketoconazole, and terbinafine using the CLSI M38-A broth dilution reference method. The isolates showed varied response/sensitivities to the antifungal agents tested. This is probably the first documented testing of Scedosporium apiospermum isolates from Africa in general and Nigeria in particular against a broad range of conventional antifungal agents.
