Bold numbers indicate MICs in the resistant range based on EUCAST breakpoints (version 10.0) or tentative CDC-breakpoints for C. auris (available at https://www.cdc.gov/fungal/candida-auris/c-auris-antifungal.html [last accessed 11/2021]). For Nitroxoline quality control and reproduction of nitroxoline susceptibility testing with yeasts elsewhere, test results of six different ATCC strains were included.
