Identification and Susceptibility Test Analysis of 702 Strains of Candida / 中华医院感染学杂志

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE To learn the classification of candidal hospital infection and its antifungal drug susceptibility test,in search for prevention and treatment measure.METHODS The CHROMagar candida color medium was applied to isolate Candida,DADE WalkAway-40 and RY-ID were applied to identify Candida strains.Rosco disc diffusion method was applied to analyze susceptibility test of Candida strains.RESULTS Of the 702 isolates,70.0% were C.albicans,20.8% were C.glabrata,and 6.3% were C.tropicalis.The candidas showed various resistance to 6 anti-fungal drugs.CONCLUSIONS C.albicans is still the most common pathogen of candidal infection,but in other candida the percentage of C.glabrata is rising now.Amphotericin B,fluconazole,itraconazole and nystatin(Anticandine) have a good antifungal to all candidas,but flucytosine and ketoconazole have less susceptibility to them.So medication should be accorded with the results of antifungal susceptibility test.
