Yeastlike Microorganisms and Molds Isolated in theMycological Laboratory of the First Dermatological Clinic of the Medical FacultyComenius University and Faculty Hospital Bratislava in 1995–2000
Kvasinkovité mikroorganizmy a plesne izolovanév mykologickom laboratóriu I. Dermatovenerologickejkliniky LFUK a FN v Bratislave v rokoch 1995–2000
V rokoch 1995 až 2000 bolo v mykologickom laboratóriu spracovaných 8663 materiálov, u ktorýchsme stanovovali prítomnosť kvasinkovitých mikroorganizmov mikroskopickým a kultivačným vyšetrením,pomocou germ-tube testu, fermentácie a asimilácie cukrov. Vyšetrili sme 3421 materiálovstolice, z ktorých bolo 37 % mykologicky pozitívnych, najčastejšie sa dokázala C. albicans, menejGeotrichum candidum. Z 1736 spút sme izolovali kvasinkovité mikroorganizmy v 48 %, najviac bolavykultivovaná C. albicans. V 2697 steroch z kože a slizníc sme hubové mikroorganizmy našli v 26 %.Z vonkajšieho zvukovodu bolo spracovaných 550 sterov, z ktorých bolo 40 % mykologicky (mikroskopickyaj kultivačne) pozitívnych, hlavným vyvolávateľom otomykóz boli plesne rodu Aspergillus.Z 87 materiálov z oka sme najčastejšie izolovali plesne – Acremonium sp., Fusarium sp., Penicilliumsp. Zo 123 vyšetrení moča bolo 41 % mykologicky pozitívnych, najčastejšie sa izolovala C. albicans.V 49 materiáloch krvi sme kvasinky izolovali trikrát.

Summary
In 1995–2000 we examined in the mycological laboratory 8663 specimens for fungal infection bymicroscopical examination cultivation. The species was identified by the germ-tube test, fermentationand assimilation of carbohydrates. We examined 3421 specimens of faeces and found fungalinfection in 37%, the most common was Candida albicans and Geotrichum candidum. In 1736specimens of sputum and bronchial lavage, yeast microorganisms were isolated in 48%, mostlyCandida albicans. In 2697 specimens of skin and mucous membranes in 26% we found fungalmicroorganisms. We examined 550 samples from the external ear, 40% was mycologically positive,the most common infectious agent of otomycosis was Aspergillus sp. Among 87 specimens from eyeswe isolated molds- Acremonium sp., Fusarium sp. and Penicillium sp. Among 123 samples of urine,41% were mycologically positive, most common was Candida albicans. In 49 blood samples yeastswere found only three times.
Key words:
fungi – candida – mycology – epidemiology.
