Abstract:Objective To evaluate the influences of bacterial infections on the (1,3)-β-D-glucan detection.Method Serums of forty patients with identification of positive blood culture and forty patients with identification of negative blood culture,af-ter controlling disturbance,were detected by G tests.Results Among 22 patients with Gram positive bactereamia and 18 pa-tients with Gram negative bactereamia,only one patient identified as Escherichia coli infection was positive for G test,while four patients were G test suspicious and the rest were negative.Among 40 patients with negative blood culture,three patients were known as G test suspicious while the rest were negative.There is no statistic significance of G test results between speci-mens with blood culture positive and negative (P >0.05).Conclusion Bacterial infections have minor influences on G test de-tection in this study.
