From 1990 through 1994, we fortuitously isolated Histoplasma capsulatum from six patients with AIDS whose specimens of blood were processed by the BACTEC system using Middlebrook broth selective for acid-fast bacilli (13A medium). Growth indices became positive after an average of 17 days of incubation (range, 11 to 20 days). No acid-fast bacilli were seen, but small budding yeasts characteristic of H. capsulatum were present.
从1990年到1994年,我们偶然从6例艾滋病患者中分离出荚膜组织胞浆菌,这些患者的血液标本采用BACTEC系统,使用对耐酸杆菌有选择性的Middlebrook肉汤(13A培养基)进行处理。培养平均17天(范围为11至20天)后生长指数变为阳性。未发现耐酸杆菌,但存在荚膜组织胞浆菌特有的小芽生酵母。
