Abstract
The in vitro activities of ravuconazole against 575 clinical strains of Aspergillus spp. and 348 nondermatophyte non- Aspergillus spp. were analyzed. Ravuconazole was active against Aspergillus spp., other hyaline filamentous fungi, black molds, and some Mucorales . Species such as Scedosporium prolificans , Fusarium spp., and Scopulariopsis spp. were resistant to the triazole.Keywords
