Abstract

The in vitro susceptibility of molecularly identified Hortaea werneckii isolates (n = 37), the causative agent of tinea nigra, originating from clinical and environmental sources was determined for nine antifungal agents. Posaconazole had the lowest geometric mean minimum inhibitory concentration (GM MIC) (0.07 µg/mL), followed by voriconazole (0.13 µg/mL), isavuconazole (0.14 µg/mL), itraconazole (0.16 µg/mL), terbinafine (0.19 µg/mL) and amphotericin B (0.92 µg/mL). In contrast, fluconazole (14.56 µg/mL), caspofungin (2.41 µg/mL) and anidulafungin (1.42 µg/mL) demonstrated the highest GM MICs/MECs against H. werneckii. © 2019 Elsevier Ltd
