Drug susceptibility profiles of Candida species isolated from the oral mucosa of HIV-positive West African patients using the TREK Sensititre system

Mcarthur C*, Abrantes PM and Africa CWJ

The prevalence and anti-mycotic drug susceptibility profiles of Candida species from Cameroon in Africa are unavailable. This study was prompted by an increasing incidence of treatment failure. Drug susceptibility profiles, necessary to improve treatment outcomes, is particularly important in countries where the sale of antimicrobials and antifungals is uncontrolled and resistance may emerge due to the indiscriminate use.
