摘要
Results from the SENTRY international fungal surveillance program for 2006 to 2007 are presented. A total of 1,448 Candida sp., 49 Aspergillus fumigatus, and 33 Cryptococcus neoformans isolates were obtained from infected sterile-site sources in patients on five continents. Reference susceptibility was determined for anidulafungin, caspofungin, 5-flucytosine, fluconazole, itraconazole, posaconazole, voriconazole, and amphotericin B by CLSI methods.
