The range of MICs against isolates of T. mentagrophytes, T. rubrum, M. canis, Microsporum gypseum, and Epidermophyton floccosum were 0.16 to 1.25 ug/ml. Five isolates of Aspergillus species and two isolates of Penicillium species were susceptible, with MICs of 0.63 to 5.0 ug/ml. However, this compound was less active (MICs, 10 to 80 ug/ml) against yeast-like fungi, including isolates of C. albicans, Candida species, Torulopsis glabrata, and Cryptococcus neoformans.
