Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To study and analyze the detected rate,distribution of fungal species and drug resistance of 137 strains of infecting urinary system epiphytes in local area over the last three years to provide foundation for the reasonable clinical use of anti-epiphyte medicines.METHODS The epiphytes isolated from epiphyte culture of midstream urine were tested with API 20C AUX and their drug sensitivity was tested with Rosco disk diffusion method.RESULTS Of 137 strains isolated in the experiment,57 were Candida albicans,accounted for 41.6%;48 were C.tropicalis,accounted for 35.0%;and 19 were C.glabrata,accounted for 13.9%.And their drug resistances to fluconazole were 5.2%,8.3% and 36.8%,respectively.All tested epiphytes were sensitive to amphotericin B.CONCLUSIONS The results indicated that the isolation rate of epiphytes in local area is high.The majority of tested epiphytes are C.albicans and C.tropicalis,which are comparatively sensitive to zole medicines.C.glabrata is comparatively resistant to zole medicines.Amphotericin B is the most effective medicine to cure epiphytic infections of urine system.
