Yeast carriage on hands of hospital personnel working in intensive care units.

The Journal of hospital infection - 1 May 1998

Huang Y C, Lin T Y, Leu H S, Wu J L, Wu J H

Abstract excerpt

The frequency and distribution of yeast carriage on the hands of hospital personnel working in intensive care unit (ICUs), was investigated. Hand carriage of yeast and Candida species was 46 and 29%, respectively. Rhodotorula sp. and Candida parapsilosis were most frequently recovered. There was no significant difference in frequency or distribution of yeasts and Candida sp. recovered among the three ICUs....
