Abstract
Free-living amoebae may be pathogenic and harbor several agents of pneumonia. We tested the susceptibility of amoebal cysts and trophozoites to currently used biocides for bronchoscope decontamination. We showed that two particular biocides are inadequate for disinfecting bronchoscopes, as Acanthamoeba polyphaga survived 3 hours of exposure to these undiluted agents.
摘要
自由生活的变形虫可能具有致病性，并携带多种肺炎病原体。我们测试了变形虫囊肿和滋养体对目前用于支气管镜消毒的杀菌剂的敏感性。我们发现，两种特定的杀菌剂对支气管镜消毒效果不佳，因为多食棘阿米巴在接触这些未稀释的药剂3小时后仍能存活。
