In vitro susceptibilities of Madurella mycetomatis to itraconazole and amphotericin B assessed by a modified NCCLS method and a viability-based 2,3-Bis(2-methoxy-4-nitro-5- sulfophenyl)-5-[(phenylamino)carbonyl]-2H-tetrazolium hydroxide (XTT) assay.

Abstract

Susceptibilities of Madurella mycetomatis against amphotericin B and itraconazole in vitro were determined by protocols based on NCCLS guidelines (visual reading) and a 2,3-bis (2-methoxy-4-nitro-5-sulfophenyl)-5-[(phenylamino) carbonyl]-2H-tetrazolium hydroxide (XTT) assay for fungal viability. The XTT assay was reproducible and sensitive for both antifungals. Itraconazole (MIC at which 50% of the isolates tested are inhibited [MIC(50)]) of 0.06 to 0.13 mg/liter) was superior to amphotericin B (MIC(50) of 0.5 to 1.0 mg/liter).
