In Vitro Activity of Micafungin against Planktonic and Sessile Candida albicans Isolates
View through CrossRef
ABSTRACT
Planktonic and sessile susceptibilities to micafungin were determined for 30 clinical isolates of
Candida albicans
obtained from blood or other sterile sites. Planktonic and sessile MIC
90
s for micafungin were 0.125 and 1.0 μg/ml, respectively.
