Comparison of the Sensititre YeastOne® Colorimetric Antifungal Panel with the Modified Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute Broth Microdilution (M38-A) Method for Antifungal Susceptibility Testing of Dermatophytes

Abstract

The MICs obtained were lower by the Sensititre than the microdilution method. The best correlation between both methods was obtained for V in T. mentagrophytes (>80%), but was low for T. rubrum. Although the Sensititre method is easy to use in a clinical laboratory, it shows poor agreement with the reference method for dermatophytes.
