ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE To investigate the distribution and resistance of fungi isolated from hemopathy patients,and to provide the laboratorial data in order to prevent and treat infection caused by fungi more effectively.METHODS Strains were isolated from the upper respiratory tract,lower respiratory tract,genitourinary tract,alimentary tract;and perianal region,perineum,and the soft tissue and skin wounds.Antimicrobial susceptibility of clinical isolates was tested by broth microdilution susceptibility test.RESULTS Candida albicans,Aspergillus,tropicalis,C.krusei,and C.glabrata were the main fungi of total 3104 detected isolates.The resistance rates of C.albicans and C.tropicalis to fluconazole,itraconazole and 5-flucytosine were no more than 1.4%.The MIC50-MIC90 range of C.tropicalis for itraconazole was narrow(0.25-0.5 mg/L),but that was wide for fluconazole(0.25-4.0 mg/L).CONCLUSIONS C.albicans,Aspergillus,C.tropicalis,C.krusei,and C.glabrata are possibly the most common pathogens causing endogenous and exogenous fungi infection.The main infection sites of Aspergillus are the upper respiratory tract and lower respiratory tract,which may be associated possibly with ward's air quality.The MIC50to MIC90 range of C.tropicalis is wider for fluconazole than for itraconazole,which is possibly correlated with overexpression of CtMDR1 in C.tropicalis caused by the widely application of fluconazole in therapy.
