Abstract

Summary. Minimal inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of amorolfine for 52 pathogenic yeasts or yeast-like organisms, filamentous and dimorphic fungi represented by 955 isolates were determined in agar dilution tests. Amorolfine has a broad antifungal spectrum, but unfortunately this drug is so far only available for topical use.

Zusammenfassung. Im Agardilutionstest wurde die minimale Hemmkonzentration (MIC) von Amorolfin für 955 Pilzisolate bestimmt, die 52 Arten von pathogenen Hefen, Fadenpilzen und dimorphen Pilzen angehören. Amorolfin hat ein breites Wirkspektrum, doch ist diese Substanz bisher nur für die topische Anwendung zugelassen.
