Comparison of microdilution broth and disk diffusion for antifungal susceptibility testing against Candida spp.<:Comparison of microdilution broth and disk diffusion for antifungal susceptibility testing against Candida spp.<br> Comparação entre microdiluição e disco difusão para o teste de susceptibilidade aos antifúngicos contra Candida spp.

The evolution of fungal resistance can be evaluated by testing susceptibility to antifungal agents. The protocols for susceptibility testing most common are Broth Microdilution (BMD), Disk Diffusion (DD) and E-test. The objective of this study was to compare the susceptibility tests conducted by the...
