Sensititre YeastOne colorimetric antifungal panels were compared with the CLSI (formerly NCCLS) M38-A reference method for testing the susceptibility of filamentous fungi to posaconazole; agreement (±2 log2 dilutions) between the two methods was 97%. These data confirm the utility of YeastOne panels for measuring the susceptibility of filamentous fungi to posaconazole.
