Abstract | Commercial tests are often employed in clinical microbiology laboratories for antifungal susceptibility testing of filamentous fungi. Method-dependent epidemiological cutoff values (ECVs) have been defined in order to detect non-wild-type (NWT) isolates harboring resistance mechanisms. We reviewed the literature in order to find studies where commercial methods were used to evaluate for in vitro susceptibility of filamentous fungi and assess their ability to detect NWT isolates according to the available ECVs. Data were found for the gradient concentration strips Etest and MIC Test Strips (MTS), broth microdilution Sensititre YeastOne (SYO), Micronaut-AM and the agar dilution VIPcheck assays. Applying itraconazole, voriconazole and posaconazole Etest ECVs for |
