Specimens from 495 patients attending Johannesburg hospitals and family planning clinics were examined for Trichomonas vaginalis by microscopy of Giemsa (GS), Papanicolaou (PAP), and acridine-orange (AO) stained smears, and by culture in Feinberg-Whittington medium. Culture, Pap and GS stained smears from vaginal swabs yielded fewer positives than AO stained smears. Although Pap-stained cytological smears gave the highest number of positives, in 30% of these cases the presence of T.vaginalis could not be confirmed by examination of vaginal swabs. Of the positive AO-stained smears, 93% were also positive by at least one other technique.
对约翰内斯堡医院和计划生育诊所的495名患者的样本进行了检查,通过对吉姆萨(GS)、巴氏(PAP)和吖啶橙(AO)染色涂片进行显微镜检查以及在费恩伯格 - 惠廷顿培养基中培养来检测阴道毛滴虫。来自阴道拭子的培养物、巴氏染色涂片和吉姆萨染色涂片的阳性结果比吖啶橙染色涂片少。尽管巴氏染色的细胞学涂片阳性数量最多,但在这些病例中有30%通过阴道拭子检查无法确认阴道毛滴虫的存在。在吖啶橙染色涂片阳性的样本中,93%通过至少一种其他技术检测也呈阳性。
