Abstract

Objective To determine the bacterial types and antibiotic susceptibility of candida in sexually transmitted disease patients.Methods ATB ID 32 C bioMerieux France and Rosco Disk diffusion method was be used to do typing and drug sensitivity test of candida.Comparing the susceptibility for all kinds types of candida.Results 155 strains genital candida were isolated.Including 110 strains(70.97%) of candida albicans,22 strains(14.19%) of candida parapsilosis,12 strains(7.74%) of candida glabrata,6 strains(3.87%) of candida tropicalis and 5 strains of the other candida.The higher susceptibilities to genital candida were nystatin(NYS) 100%,itraconazole(IT) 89.03%,fluconazole(FL) 95.48%,ketoconazole(KET) 96.13%,the higher resistances to genital candida were enconazole(ECO) 58.70% and miconazole(MIC) 56.13%.Conclusion Resistant candida strains will,however,probably exsit in imidazole yeast-antifungal combination;there are differences of antibiotic sensitivity spectrum between all kinds types of candida.
