In vitro antifungal testing usually evaluates the responses mainly of micro/macroconidia or hyphae that are produced in saprophytic conditions, while dermatophytes in vivo often produce arthroconidia, a cellular structure presumably more resistant to antifungals. The purpose of this study was to evaluate, with a microdilution method, the sensitivity of some antifungals, commonly used in veterinary practice for topical therapy, on both micro/macroconidia and arthroconidia/chlamydospores produced in vitro.

Abstract
In vitro antifungal testing usually evaluates the responses mainly of micro/macroconidia or hyphae that are produced in saprophytic conditions, while dermatophytes in vivo often produce arthroconidia, a cellular structure presumably more resistant to antifungals. The purpose of this study was to evaluate, with a microdilution method, the sensitivity of some antifungals, commonly used in veterinary practice for topical therapy, on both micro/macroconidia and arthroconidia/chlamydospores produced in vitro.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
