Analysis of 40 New York City Cryptococcus neoformans isolates revealed that 39 were typeable, of which 85 and 12.5% were Cryptococcus neoformans var. grubii (serotype A) and Cryptococcus neoformans var. neoformans (serotype D), respectively. The prevalence of serotype D isolates in New York City appears to be significantly higher than indicated by previous studies of North American isolates.
对40株纽约市新型隐球菌分离株的分析显示,其中39株可分型,其中85%和12.5%分别为新型隐球菌格鲁比变种(血清型A)和新型隐球菌新型变种(血清型D)。纽约市血清型D分离株的流行率似乎明显高于先前对北美分离株的研究结果。
