Antifungal drug resistance screening of Candida glabrata comparing agar dilution to the CLSI broth microdilution method. Yeast isolates were examined on Chromagar Candida containing (A) caspofungin, (B) voriconazole or (C) posaconazole. Yeast growth on agar containing two concentrations of antifungal agent was compared to growth on drug-free agar. Yeasts were recorded as susceptible or resistant (or non-susceptible for caspofungin) on the drug screening agar and results were plotted against the CLSI MIC (plus or minus one dilution factor). Closed circles represent good correlation between the two methods. Open up triangles represent very major errors (VME) where resistant (or non-susceptible) yeasts (by CLSI) were screened as susceptible on agar dilution; open down triangles represent major errors (ME) where susceptible yeasts (by CLSI) were screened as resistant on agar dilution.
