ABSTRACT
Penicillium marneffei infection is an important disease among human immunodeficiency virus patients in Southeast Asia. The in vitro antifungal-drug susceptibilities of 29 clinical isolates and 5 isolates from bamboo rats collected from 2002 to 2004 were determined. The P. marneffei yeast form is more susceptible than the mycelial form to amphotericin B and ketoconazole, while the mycelial and yeast forms displayed similar susceptibilities to flucytosine and itraconazole. The MICs of fluconazole were higher for both mycelial and yeast forms.
