Flucytosine MIC distributions of isolates of the yeast species in the current study

Isolate numbers tested are given in parentheses for each species, together with the percentage of isolates (%R) that fall above the Cryptococcus neoformans (upper vertical dashed line) or C. albicans (lower vertical dashed line) ECV. %R > 20% is highlighted in bold. Modal MICs and MIC90 values are highlighted in bold, and underlined (respectively).

For Pichia kudriavzevii (C. krusei) a substantially higher ECV has been proposed. However, since available evidence indicates that isolates of P. kudriavzevii are innately resistant to flucytosine, the C. albicans ECV has been applied for MIC interpretation here.
