  • Title: In vitro susceptibility testing of dermatophytes isolated from pediatric cases in Nigeria against five antifungals.
    Author: Nweze EI, Ogbonna CC, Okafor JI.
    Journal: Rev Inst Med Trop Sao Paulo; 2007; 49(5):293-5. PubMed ID: 18026635.
    Abstract:
    The antifungal activities of itraconazole, ketoconazole, fluconazole, terbinafine and griseofulvin were tested by broth microdilution methods against 71 isolates of dermatophytes isolated from Nigerian children. Most drugs were very active against all the dermatophytes and the MIC 90 ranged from 0.03 to 8.0 microg/mL. This appears to be the first documented data on the antifungal susceptibility testing of isolates of dermatophytes from Nigerian children.
