Description

Application

Micafungin sodium has been used as an anti-fungal agent to test its effectiveness against multidrug-resistant C. auris by in vitro minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) assay.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Micafungin is a semisynthetic echinocandin antifungal. Micafungin works by inhibiting the enzyme β(1,3)-D-Glucan synthase and thereby disturbing the integrity of the fungal cell wall. This enzyme does not exist in mammalian systems.

Micafungin is used for first-line treatment of invasive and esophageal candidiasis in addition to prophylaxis of Candida infections in both adults and children.

Semisynthetic echinocandin antifungal that inhibits 1,3-β-D-glucan synthase which is required for cell wall synthesis.
