The diagnostic importance of the isolation of Candida albicans from a skin lesion is often uncertain. In a 68-year-old man from whose lesions only C. albicans was originally isolated Trichophyton rubrum and Epidermophyton floccosum were also isolated when the growth of the yeast was inhibited in a selective medium. The use of this selective medium, casamino acids erythritol albumin agar, ensures the proper interpretation of the significance of the presence of C. albicans in skin lesions.
从皮肤损害处分离出白色念珠菌的诊断意义常常难以确定。在一名68岁男性患者中,最初从其皮损处仅分离出白色念珠菌,但当在选择性培养基中抑制酵母菌生长时,也分离出了红色毛癣菌和絮状表皮癣菌。使用这种选择性培养基——酪蛋白氨基酸赤藓糖醇白蛋白琼脂,可确保正确解读皮肤损害处白色念珠菌存在的意义。
