Abstract

Objective To investigate the infection condition and antibiotic susceptibility test of Ureaplasma urealyticum(UU) and Mycoplasma hominis(MH).Methods UU and MH were cultured by using the reagent kit of Yin-Ke Mycoplasma from Shenzhen and antibiotic susceptibility tests were done.Results The total detection rate was 41.98%,and the detection rate of the females(50.34%) was significantly higher than that of the males(31.09%)(P0.01).Only-UU-positive(30.15%) was significantly higher than both UU-MH positive(11.32%) and only-MH positive(0.51%)(P0.01).The resistant rates to ciprofloxacin,kfloxacin,sparfloxacin,roxithromycin,spiramycin and levofloxacin were all 60.00%.The sensitive rates to doxycycline,minocycline,and josamycin were all 80.00%.Conclusions The infection rate of Mycoplasma in local area is high.Antimicrobial agents should be chosen according to antimicrobial susceptibility test results because of their high and multi-drug resistance.
