Effect of culture medium on the disk diffusion method for determining antifungal susceptibilities of dermatophytes.

Belkys Fernández-Torres1, Alfonso Carrillo-Muñoz, Isabel Inza, Josep Guarro.   

Abstract

We have evaluated a disk diffusion method to determine the activities of five drugs against 50 strains of dermatophytes and to assess the influence of the culture medium (antibiotic medium 3, high-resolution medium, and RPMI) on the inhibition zone diameters (IZD). There were no differences among the medium/drug combinations, except for itraconazole-RPMI, which showed the narrowest IZD.
