Minimal Inhibitory Concentration (MIC)-Phenomena in <i>Candida albicans</i> and Their Impact on the Diagnosis of Antifungal Resistance

Minimal Inhibitory Concentration (MIC)-Phenomena in <i>Candida albicans</i> and Their Impact on the Diagnosis of Antifungal Resistance

Antifungal susceptibility testing (AFST) of clinical isolates is a tool in routine diagnostics to facilitate decision making on optimal antifungal therapy. The minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC)-phenomena (trailing and paradoxical effects (PXE)) observed in AFST complicate the unambiguous and re...
