AntifungalAgents Fungi are plant-like, nonphotosynthetic eukaryotes growing either on colonies of single cells(yeasts )or in filamentous multicellular aggregetes(molds). Most fungi live as saprophytes in soil or on dead plant materials and are important in the mineralization of organic matter. There are 300,000 kinds of fungi, but only 270 of which produce disease in humans and animals. These fungi are divided into two sections according mycotic illnesses in huamns they produced. That is: shallow fungi, produces skin and hair infections, system fungi, produces visceral infetions. In recent year, the incidence of fungal infections has reached alarming proportions. This duo to a number of factors such as intensive uses of chemotherapies for bacterial infection and cancers. The number of systemic infections have especially increased, this has been true for large populations of immunocompromized patients as well as thoseAntifungal Agents Fungi are plant-like, nonphotosynthetic eukaryotes growing either on colonies of single cells(yeasts) or in filamentous multicellular aggregetes(molds).Most fungi live as saprophytes in soil or on dead plant materials and are important in the mineralization of organic matter.
