Fusarium species are reported frequently as the most common causative agents of fungal keratitis in tropical countries such as India. Sixty-five fusaria isolated from patients were subjected to multilocus DNA sequencing to characterize the spectrum of the species associated with keratitis infections in India. Susceptibilities of these fusaria to ten antifungals were determined in vitro by the broth microdilution method. An impressive phylogenetic diversity of fusaria was reflected in susceptibilities differing at species level. Typing results revealed that the isolates were distributed among species in the species complexes (SCs) of F. solani (FSSC; n = 54), F. oxysporum (FOSC; n = 1), F. fujikuroi (FFSC; n = 3), and F. dimerum (FDSC; n = 7). Amphotericin B, voriconazole, and clotrimazole proved to be the most effective drugs, followed by econazole.
在印度等热带国家,镰刀菌属经常被报道为真菌性角膜炎最常见的病原体。从患者身上分离出的65株镰刀菌进行多位点DNA测序,以确定与印度角膜炎感染相关的菌种谱。通过肉汤微量稀释法在体外测定这些镰刀菌对十种抗真菌药物的敏感性。镰刀菌在物种水平上的敏感性差异反映出其令人印象深刻的系统发育多样性。分型结果显示,分离株分布在茄病镰刀菌(FSSC;n = 54)、尖孢镰刀菌(FOSC;n = 1)、藤仓镰刀菌(FFSC;n = 3)和双隔镰刀菌(FDSC;n = 7)的物种复合体(SCs)中的各个物种之间。两性霉素B、伏立康唑和克霉唑被证明是最有效的药物,其次是益康唑。
