Comparación de diferentes medios de cultivo para el aislamiento de hongos alergénicos a partir de ambientes y fosas nasales

Abstract

Different culture media were evaluated for the collection of environmental samples (Agar Dicloran Rosa de Bengala Cloranfenicol, CHROMagar Candida, Avena Agar and , Sabouraud Dextrosa Agar + 5% NaCl) and nasal fossa samples (Sunflower seed agar, SDA and CHROMagar Candida) of workers from three University buildings Santiago from cali. It was found that there were statistical differences, p>0.05, when CHROMagar Candida and Agar Dicloran Rosa de Bengala Cloranfenicol were compared with the volumetric method. , Sabouraud Dextrosa Agar + 5% NaCl recovered the lowest number of UFC / m3 , p <0.0001 when compared with the other media used with the gravimetric method and in the study of nostrils it was found that SDA was the culture medium where the higher counts P<0.0001. In this study, the Agar Dicloran Rosa de Bengala Cloranfenicol culture medium demonstrated that it is the medium of choice for the isolation of fungi from environmental samples and Sabouraud agar for clinical samples
