Spectrum and Antifungal Drug Resistance among Fungal Pathogens Isolated from Prison Inmates in Nairobi, Kenya

2024-10-30

Abstract excerpt

Background The emergence of antifungal resistance in fungal pathogens highlights the need for local epidemiological data to guide empirical therapy in clinical settings. Fungal research and anti-fungal drug resistance studies are limited in developing countries; hence, there is a need for burden estimation in low- and middle-income countries. This study aimed to determine the spectrum of fungal pathogens and the a...
