Abstract:
Objective:To study the role of RapIDYeast Plus (RYP) system in identifying common clinical yeasts.Methods: The target strains were cultured and passaged twice on Sabouraud dextrose agar,and were fed to RYP system after 24-48 h incubation at 30℃.Results: One hundred and thirty-nine of the 150 target strains were identified to the level of species correctly,and 8 undetermined strains were confirmed by additional tests.It was found that 3 strains had been incorrectly identified by RYP system.The accuracy of RYP system was calculated as 92% without additional tests and 98% with additional tests.Conclusion: RYP system is suitable for routine tests in clinical microbiological laboratory;it can accurately identify more than 40 kinds of yeasts and yeast-like bacteria in clinical practice.
