Comparative evaluation of sensititre YeastOne and VITEK2 antifungal susceptibility tests with CLSI broth microdilution method of clinical <i>Cryptococcus</i> isolates in Taiwan
The study pointed out the major errors of fluconazole susceptibility results in clinical <i>Cryptococcus neoformans</i> isolates between the commercial Sensititre YeastOne Susceptibility Plate version YO10C and the standard CLSI broth microdilution method. The results should be interpreted carefully with clinical correlation, and a different method of antifungal susceptibility testing should be considered if a discrepancy of susceptibility results is suspected.
