Abstract AR
تم في هذه الدراسة تحديد العدد الكلي و تنوع الفطريات و الخمائر المنتقلة بواسطة الهواء في غرف العمليات لستة مستشفيات في مدينة اربد.
جمعت 65 عينة هواء (100لتر/ دقيقة) خاص بذلك للفترة ما بين شهر حزيران إلى شهر كانون الثاني / 2005, و ذلك باستخدام أطباق الوسط الزراعي SDA و التي حفظت على درجة حرارة 25 مئوي لمدة 21 يوم.
تم إعادة تنمية كل مستعمرة فطرية ظهرت على هذه الأطباق على طبقين من وسط SDA و حفظها على درجة حرارة 37 و 25 مئوي لمدة يومين و 21 يوم على التوالي و من ثم شخصت هذه الفطريات بناء على الشكل ألمجهري و فحص أنبوب الإنماء.
تراوح عدد الفطريات ما بين 88-259 CFU / m3 و بملاحظة أعلى عدد في مستشفى E (CFU / m3 259) و أقل عدد في مستشفى A (CFU / m3 31).
كان التنوع أكثر في أشهر حزيران-أيلول (2-13) عما عليه في بقية مدة الدراسة (2-3) و ملاحظة أكثر تنوعا (13مستعمرة) في مستشفى E.
تم عزل و تشخيص العديد من الفطريات مثل Aspergillus spp.
(A.
fumigatus, A.
niger, A.
(flavus, A.
glaucus, A.terreus وفطريات أخرى مثل Penicillium spp., Mucor spp., Rhizopus spp, Graphium) spp, Geotrichum spp, Trichophyton spp, Scopulariopsis (spp, Fusarium spp and Microsporum spp) و نوعين من الخمائر هي Blastomyces spp.
و Candida spp..
Abstract EN
Total count and diversity of the airborne yeasts and filamentous fungi in the medical surgery operation theatres (OT) of six hospitals in northern Jordan were investigated.
Sixty five air samples of 100 liters volume / min were collected by a microbiological air sampler from these units during the period June-December / 2005.
Air samples were impacted on Sabouraud Dextrose Agar (SDA), and then incubated at 25 °C for 21 days.
All fungal colonies appeared on agar plates were sub-cultured on two SDA plates, after that incubated at 37 °C and 25 °C for 48 h and 21 days, respectively, and then identified based on the microscopic colony morphology and germ tube test.
The average fungal count ranged between 88 and 259 CFU / m3 with the highest count observed in hospital E (259 CFU / m3), and the lowest in hospital A (31 CFU/m3).
More diverse colonies (2-13) were observed during June-September than after September (2-3) with the highest diversity (13 colonies) in hospital E.
Aspergillus spp.
(A.fumigatus, A.
Niger, A.
flatus, A.
glances and A.
Terrie) and other molds (Penicillium spp., Macro spp., Rhizopus Spp., Grapheme spp, Geotrichum spp, Trichophyton spp., Scopulariopsis spp.
Fusarium spp.
and Microsporum spp.) were identified.
Two types of yeasts were identified as Candida spp.
and Blastomyces spp.
