Abstract:
Objective To analyze the correlation among 3 kinds of detection methods of routine microscopic examination,fluorescence PCR nucleic acid amplification and fungal color culture in the fungal detection of vaginal secretion.Methods The patients with suspected vaginitis treated in this hospital during 2014-2016 were selected.Each 500 cases of negative and positive vaginal secretion samples by microscopic examination were collected.The candida types were identified by using the fluorescence PCR nucleic acid amplification,then 100 samples with the positive results of fluorescence PCR nucleic acid amplification for detecting fungal were performed the fungal microbial culture to verify the accuracy rate of typing results.Results The Kappa value of consistency test between fluorescence PCR nucleic acid amplification and routine microscopic examination was 0.632,the consistency between them was poor.Among 500 positive samples of vaginal secretion detected by routine microscopic examination,382 cases (76.4 ％) of Candida albicans infection were detected by fluorescence PCR nucleic acid amplification,73 cases (14.6％) were Candida glabrata infection,10 cases (2.0 ％) were Candida tropicalis infection,3 cases (0.6 ％) were Candida albicans combined Candida glabrata infection and 32 cases (6.4 ％) were other fungal infection.Among 500 negative samples by conventional microscopic examination,152 positive cases were identified by fluorescence PCR nucleic acid amplification,including 130 cases of Candida albicans,16 cases of Candida glabrata and 6 cases of Candida tropicalis.There was no statistical significant difference in positive rate between the fluorescence PCR nucleic acid amplification and CHROMAgar rapid color method (x2 =0.131,P =0.936).Conclusion For the patients with clinical manifestations and negative microscopic examination results,it is recommended to conduct fluorescence PCR nucleic acid amplification rapid type identification or fungal culture identification.
