长孢洛德酵母在表型上与近平滑念珠菌密切相关，最近被确定为亚洲和墨西哥患者血流感染的罕见原因。我们在这里报告的分离长孢洛德酵母从导管的疑似真菌血症的情况下。通过表型特征和核糖体DNA测序证实了分离物的身份。
Lodderomyces elongisporus is phenotypically closely related to Candida parapsilosis and has recently been identified as an infrequent cause of bloodstream infections in patients from Asia andMexico. We report here the isolation of Lodderomyces elongisporus from the catheter of a suspected case of fungemia. The identity of the isolate was confirmed by phenotypic characteristics and ribosomal DNA sequencing.
