Биологические свойства грибов Candida albicans, выделенных из вагинального биотопа, по данным хронобиологического метода

Proliferative, phospholipase, catalase, proteinase biological activity of C.albicans cultures which were excreted from vaginal biotope of healthy women and patients with "candidiasis vulvovaginitis" was studied within 24 hours. The results were evaluated by rhythmometric parameters: mesor, amplitude, acrophase and rhythm period. The results obtained might testify to different daily periods of physiological activity of microbial cultures and reflect the degree of their pathogenicity. The suggested chronobiological method which was characterized by high specificity and sensibility allowed to differentiate the carriage and candidiasis by rhythm indices comparison (contributions: circadian 24 hours and ultradian 12 hours and amplitude).
