Early diagnosis of candidemia is critical for the correct management and treatment of patients.
To test the efficacy of different blood culture bottles in the growth of Candida strains.
We compared the performance of BD BACTEC™ Plus Aerobic/F (Aero) culture bottles with the specific BD BACTEC™ Mycosis IC/F Lytic (Myco) culture bottles using the BD BACTEC™ FX 40 automated blood culture system to determine the mean time-to-detection (TTD) in Candida species. One isolate each of six Candida species was inoculated into blood culture bottles (final concentration, 1-5CFUml) and incubated at 37°C until automated growth detection.
Candida albicans and Nakaseomyces glabratus (Candida glabrata) were detected earlier in the specific culture bottle, whereas Candida tropicalis was detected earlier in the nonspecific bottle; Candida parapsilosis, Pichia kudriavzevii (Candida krusei), and Meyerozyma guilliermondii (Candida guilliermondii) presented similar TTD in both bottles.
Our study suggests the suitability of using both bottles in clinical laboratories for a faster diagnosis and prompt starting of any treatment.
早期诊断念珠菌血症对于正确管理和治疗患者至关重要。
测试不同血培养瓶在培养念珠菌菌株方面的效果。
我们使用 BD BACTEC™ FX 40 自动化血液培养系统比较了 BD BACTEC™ Plus Aerobic/F(Aero)培养瓶与特定的 BD BACTEC™ Mycosis IC/F Lytic(Myco)培养瓶的性能,以确定念珠菌属种的平均检测时间(TTD)。将六种念珠菌属的每种一株菌接种到血培养瓶中(终浓度为 1-5CFUml),并在 37°C 孵育直至自动检测到生长。
特定培养瓶中更早检测到白色念珠菌和光滑念珠菌(近平滑念珠菌),而非特异性瓶中更早检测到热带念珠菌;近平滑假丝酵母、库德里阿兹威毕赤酵母(克柔假丝酵母)和季也蒙假丝酵母(光滑假丝酵母)在两种瓶中呈现相似的 TTD。
我们的研究表明,临床实验室使用这两种瓶都适合更快地诊断并及时开始任何治疗。
