    Notes: Abstract To test the value of detection of anti-Candida albicans germ tube antibodies by indirect immunofluorescence assay in the diagnosis of systemic candidosis, a retrospective study was done using 126 sera from 27 patients with presumptive systemic candidosis (13 immunocompromised), 165 sera from 45 patients with aspergillosis (29 immunocompromised), 35 sera from eight patients with cryptococcosis (6 immunocompromised), and 101 sera from 101 blood donors. While 21 of 27 patients with systemic candidosis (77.8%) had anti-germ tube antibodies, these antibodies were absent in all patients with cryptococcosis and in all blood donors. They were however detected in 5 of 45 patients with aspergillosis (11.1%). Ten of 13 (76.9%) immunocompromised patients with candidosis had anti-germ tube antibodies; similar results were obtained in immunocompetent patients with candidosis (78.6%). The specificity was 96.8%, indicating a high degree of discrimination was possible between systemic candidosis and other invasive mycoses in the patients studied. Anti-germ tube responses did not appear to be significantly reduced in immunocompromised patients.

    Identification of antigens reacting with anti-Candida albicans germ tube antibodies (1992)

    Notes: Abstract Anti-Candida albicans germ tube antibodies can be induced in rabbits immunized with different C. albicans extracts. Antigens responsible for the induction of those antibodies have molecular weights of approximately 230–250, 62, 43 and 41 kDa. These antigens are present in the cell wall of both C. albicans morphological forms, although their location seems to be different.

    In vitro susceptibility ofAeromonas caviae, Aeromonas hydrophila andAeromonas sobria to fifteen antibacterial agents (1990)

    Notes: Abstract In vitro testing of the activity of 15 antibacterial agents against 522 clinical isolates ofAeromonas species demonstrated some species-associated trends. Amoxicillin plus clavulanic acid was effective against approximately 45% ofAeromonas caviae andAeromonas hydrophila, but allAeromonas sobria isolates were resistant. Aztreonam, piperacillin and mezlocillin were highly active against all the strains ofAeromonas tested. Ticarcillin was equally effective againstAeromonas caviae andAeromonas hydrophila, but more than 50% ofAeromonas sobria isolates were resistant. The latter species was more susceptible to cephalosporins thanAeromonas hydrophila andAeromonas caviae. Chloramphenicol, tetracycline and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole were extremely active against all threeAeromonas species, likewise ofloxacin and ciprofloxacin. Aztreonam, third-generation cephalosporins, chloramphenicol and the quinolones can thus be considered for therapy of infections whenAeromonas is implicated.
