Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To explore the changes in foot fungus mobility and its drug resistance for further etiology investigation and clinical treatment. METHODS Sabourand′s agar culture medium was used to culture fungi, ID identification strip was employed to identify the fungi and drug sensitive test was performed by disk diffusion test. RESULTS The incidence of Trichophyton rubrum infection was the highest (79.1%). The isolated fungi were relatively sensitive to amphotericin B (AMB, 98.9%) and itraconazole (ITC, 98.0%), and resistant to 5-fluorocytosine (5-FC, 22.1%). CONCLUSIONS Detection technique of fungal infection should be improved and anti-fungal medicine should be used reasonably according to the results of drug sensitive test so that the fungal infection, especially fungi-resistant infection could be reduced.
