In Vitro Activities of Investigational Triazoles against Fusarium Species: Effects of Inoculum Size and Incubation Time on Broth Microdilution Susceptibility Test Results

We studied the effects of inoculum size and incubation time on the susceptibility testing results for various antifungal agents against 22 Fusarium isolates by the NCCLS microdilution method. Increased inoculum size and extended incubation time resulted in elevated MICs. Posaconazole and voriconazole exhibited promising antifungal activities.
