A Pilot Study Showing Fluconazole and Flucytosine Activities against Candida glabrata are Affected by Low pH: Implications for the Treatment of Recurrent Vulvovaginal Candidiasis
Background : Candida albicans (C. albicans) and Candida glabrata (C. glabrata ) are mainly associated with vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC). Management of VVC caused by C. glabrata is particularly challenging due to its inherent reduced susceptibility to fluconazole. In this prospective laboratory-based cohort study, we investigated the effect of pH on in vitro susceptibility of Candida spp. isolates to fluconazole and flucytosine. Methods : Vaginal isolates of C. glabrata , C. albicans , Candida tropicalis (C. tropicalis) and Candida parapsilosis (C. parapsilosis) were tested for susceptibility to fluconazole and flucytosine by Epsilometer test (ETEST) strips on Roswell
