ABSTRACT

Se realizó un estudio prospectivo, analítico y experimental para determinar el porcentaje de sensibilidad de un nuevo medio de cultivo para el diagnóstico de Leishmania, denominado TSTB (Torrico-Solano-Torrico-Bermúdez). Se obtuvieron las muestras por aspirado de úlceras con sospecha clínica de Leishmaniasis de pacientes provenientes del trópico de Cochabamba. Los objetivos planteados fueron determinar el porcentaje de sensibilidad del cultivo ya mencionado y analizar el crecimiento de parásitos de Leishmania. Como resultados se obtuvo un 90% de sensibilidad mediante este método diagnóstico y una mínima contaminación por hongos (mohos y levaduras); además, un cambio de coloración en el medio de cultivo debido al crecimiento y multiplicación de los parásitos por consumo de los nutrientes.


A prospective, analytic and experimental study was realized, in which we tried to determine the percentage of sensitive of a new culture medium for the diagnosis of Leishmania, denominated Torrico-Solano-Torrico-Bermudez (TSTB). Samples were obtained by a piration of ulcers with clinical suspicion of Leishmaniasis from patients proceeding from the tropical area of Cochabamba. The objectives planted were to determine the percentage of sensitive of the mentioned culture and to analyze the growth of the parasites of Leishmania. As a result, a 90 % of positivity was obtained with this diagnostic method, with a minimum contamination by fungus (moss and yeast); further more, a change in the colour of culture medium was observed, because of the growth and multiplication of the parasites by consumption of the nutrients.
