Isolation rates of Ureaplasma urealyticum from vaginal swab of 216 patients, 105 prostitutes and 100 college females was investigated. Also, minimal inhibitory concentration of isolated strains about tetracycline and minocycline was studied.
The results were summarized as follows;
1. Out of 70 vaginitis patients, isolation rates of Ureaplasma urealyticum and Mycoplasma hominis were 34.3% and 15.7%, respectively.
2. Out of 54 cervicitis patients, isolation rates of Ureplasma urealyticum and Mycoplasma hominis were 37.0% and 11.0%, respectively.
3. Out of 92 other gynecological patients, isolation rates of Ureaplasma urealyticum and mycoplasma hominis were 44.6% and 16.3%, respectively.
4. Out of 105 prostitues, isolation rates of Ureaplasma urealyticum and Mycoplasma hominis were 54.3% and 75.2%, respectively.
5. Out of 100 college students, isolation rates of Ureaplasma urealyticum and Mycoplasma hominis were 23.0% and 7.0% respectively.
6. In the susceptibility patterns of isolated Ureaplasma urealyticum, resistant strains about tetracycline in patients, prostitues and college students were 75.2%, 73.6% and 69.5%, respectively
7. In the susceptibility patterns of isolated Ureaplasma urealyticum, resistant strains about minocycline in patients, prostitues and college students were 91.7%, 87.7% and 73.9%, respectively.
