The best type of inoculum for testing the antifungal drug susceptibility of Microsporum canis: In vivo and in vitro results.

Results suggest that correlation between the in vitro results and clinical outcome was observed only by incubating conidia for 3 days at 30 ± 2°C. These conditions might be most suitable to assess in vitro susceptibility of M. canis and assist in determining the occurrence of drug resistance and cross-resistance phenomena.
