dc.description.abstractIntroduction - Resistance to antibiotics is a well-known threat to public health. Fungal drug resistance is more recently being described as an emergent threat. The emergence of resistance to azoles among fungal species in the environmental challenges the management of severe fungal infections. Azole resistance could become a global public health threat with fungal spores able to disperse great distances on air currents. Considering the clinical relevance of Mucorales order, fungal exposure assessments should evaluate their prevalence and azole-resistance patterns. Aims - To determine Mucorales distribution in Personal Protective Equipment used by waste sorting workers in one waste sorting industry located in Lisbon district; to perform an azole-resistance screening using three medical azole drugs (itraconazole, voriconazole, and posaconazole) for the samples collected in the waste sorting industry.pt_PT
