Flucytosine. Flucytosine (17) or 5-fluorocytosine (4-amino-5-fluoro-2-pyrimidone, 5-FC), C H FN O, is a pyrimidine derivative, that is efficient against Candida albicans Cryptococcus neoformans and Torulopsis glabrata. 

A small quantity of peppermint oil is distilled in the neighbourhood of Hong-Kong, from a plant which is, in all probahility, Mentha, cand-dettsis, var. glabrata. This oil has been examined by the Imperial Institate, by Schinimel i Co..- and hv Shino Saki. The three samplea had the following characters —...

Although not very commonly used in the separation of nentral hpids, two-dimensional systems have been nsed to separate hydrocarbons, steryl esters, methyl esters, and mixed glycerides that move close to each other in one-dimensional systems. Complex neutral lipids of Biomphalaria glabrata have been first developed in hexane diethyl ether (80 20), dried, and the plates have been turned 90°, followed by the second development in hexane diethyl ether methanol (70 20 10) for complete separation of sterol and wax esters, triglycerides, free fatty acids, sterols, and monoglycerides [54]. 

O The predominant pathogen associated with vulvovaginal candidiasis is Candida albicans, although a small percentage of cases are caused by Candida glabrata, Candida tropicalis, Candida krusei, and Candida parapsilosis. 

Response rates are lower for non-albicans infections. Although an optimal regimen is unknown, use of intravaginal azole therapy for 7 to 14 days is recommended. Terconazole may prove more effective than other azoles in the treatment of non-albicans infections since C. glabrata and C. tropicalis are more susceptible to terconazole.17 For second-line therapy, boric acid 600 mg in a gelatin capsule administered vaginally twice daily for 2 weeks followed by once daily during menstruation is effective.18 Local irritation often limits the use of boric acid. Topical 4% flucytosine is also effective but use should be limited due to the potential for resistance. 

Candida albicans accounts for 80% of cases of OPC and esophageal candidiasis. Over the last 20 years, an increasing incidence of C. albicans resistance has been accompanied by an increased incidence of non-albicans species infections, including Candida glabrata, Candida tropicalis, Candida krusei, and Candida parapsilosis. In patients with cancer, non-albicans Candida species account for almost half of all cases.29...
