    Abstract

    The in vitro susceptibilities to the novel triazole isavuconazole and six other antifungal agents of a large collection of Rasamsonia isolates (n = 47) belonging to seven species were determined. Isavuconazole and voriconazole had no in vitro activity (MIC, >32 mg/liter) against isolates of the Rasamsonia argillacea species complex. The echinocandins were the most potent antifungal drugs against all of the isolates tested (minimum effective concentration, ≤0.19 mg/liter).
