Abstract: In this study, we evaluated the in vitro activity of echinocandins, azoles, and amphotericin B alone and in combination against echinocandin/azole-sensitive and echinocandin/azole-resistant Candida glabrata isolates. Susceptibility tests were performed using the broth microdilution method… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/myc.13527
Abstract: The gradual increase in caspofungin usage in Pakistan raises a concern of emergence of echinocandin resistance in local Candida glabrata strains. We sequenced and determined mutations in fks1 and fks2 genes in invasive Candida glabrata… read more here.
