Abstract

In our epidemiological study of 439 patients with diabetes mellitus, the proportion of Candida albicans isolated by the oral rinse technique was 67%. A comparison of the conventional germ tube test with the API 20C Auxanogram kit revealed that 23.6% (129/546) of germ tube-positive species were not identified as C. albicans by the kit. The API 20C Auxanogram therefore underestimated the prevalence of C. albicans. Additionally, a significant number of yeasts (138/1050, 13.1%) isolated from these patients could not be reliably identified by the kit.

摘要

在我们对439例糖尿病患者的流行病学研究中，通过口腔冲洗技术分离出白色念珠菌的比例为67%。将传统的芽管试验与API 20C生化鉴定试剂盒进行比较发现，试剂盒未将23.6%（129/546）的芽管阳性菌株鉴定为白色念珠菌。因此，API 20C生化鉴定试剂盒低估了白色念珠菌的流行率。此外，从这些患者中分离出的大量酵母菌（138/1050，13.1%）无法通过该试剂盒进行可靠鉴定。
