Abstract:Resistance in dermatophytes is an emerging global public health issue. We, therefore, developed an agar-based method for screening
Trichophyton
spp. susceptibility to terbinafine (TRB), itraconazole (ITC), and amorolfine (AMF) and validated it using molecularly characterized isolates. Α total of 40
Trichophyton
spp. isolates, 28 TRB wild type (WT) (13
