| Abstract | We compared the efficacies of the new triazole antifungal drugs fluconazole and itraconazole with that of amphotericin B in vitro and in an animal model of systemic candidiasis in normal and neutropenic mice. Antifungal treatment with fluconazole (2.5 to 20 mg/kg orally twice daily), itraconazole (10 to 40 mg/kg orally twice daily), or amphotericin B (0.1 to 4 mg/kg intraperitoneally once daily) was started 1 day after intravenous injection of 10(4) Candida albicans into normal mice or 10(3) C. albicans into neutropenic mice; the drugs were administered for 2 days. In normal mice the efficacy of treatment, which was assessed on the basis of the number of C. albicans cultured from the kidney, was greater for amphotericin B than for the triazoles. Fluconazole was more potent than itraconazole on the basis of equivalent doses, although itraconazole was more potent on the basis of the amount of free drug that was available. In neutropenic mice amphotericin B was less effective than it was in normal mice, whereas the triazoles were equally effective in normal and neutropenic mice. This was not expected, since in vitro data showed that amphotericin B was highly fungicidal, whereas both fluconazole and itraconazole had only a minimal effect on the growth of C. albicans in vitro. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
