Ra Range, MIC minimum inhibitory concentration, R resistant, MIC 90 Lowest concentration at which 90% of the isolates are inhibited

aPosaconazole has no breakpoint in new CLSI

bIsolates of C. krusei are considered resistant to fluconazole, irrespective of the MIC

cOthers: include; C. intermedia, C. dubliniensis, C. lusitaniae and M. guilliermondii (C. guilliermondii)
