Abstract
Concentrations of anidulafungin and micafungin were determined in eight different tissues obtained during autopsy of four deceased individuals who had been treated with anidulafungin and of seven who had received micafungin. The largest amounts were recovered from liver, with anidulafungin concentrations of 11.01 to 66.50 μg/g and micafungin levels of 0.36 to 5.53 μg/g (0.65 μg/g 30 days after the last administration). The lowest anidulafungin levels were measured in skeletal muscle, and the lowest micafungin concentrations were in kidneys.Entities:
