Негативное влияние на  результаты лечения инвазивного кандидоза может оказывать способность Candida spp. формировать биопленки на инвазивных медицинских устройствах у разных категорий больных.</p></sec><sec><title>Цель</title><p> Цель: оценить способность образовывать биопленки разных видов Candida, выделенных из клинически значимых образцов от больных опухолями системы крови и больных без опухолей системы крови.</p></sec><sec><title>Материалы и  методы</title><p>Материалы и  методы. Определение способности Candida spp. продуцировать биопленки проводили спектрофотометрическим методом с  использованием соли тетразолия (XTT, Sigma-Aldrich, США). Изоляты Candida spp., имеющие значение оптической плотности от  0,1  и  более, оценивали как образующие биопленки, менее 0,1 — как не способные к формированию биопленок.</p></sec><sec><title>Результаты</title><p> Результаты. Было исследовано 428 Candida spp. (C. albicans n = 192, C. parapsilosis complex n = 121, C. krusei n = 40, C. tropicalis n = 38 и C. glabrata n = 37), из них 172 изолята были выделены от больных опухолями системы крови, 256 — от больных без опухолей системы крови, 361 — из гемокультуры, 67 — из других стерильных образцов. Способность формировать биопленки была определена у  41,8 % (n = 179) Candida spp., с  одинаковой частотой у  больных опухолями системы крови и больных без опухолей системы крови (41,9 и 41,8 % соответственно). Candida non-albicans чаще продуцировали биопленки в сравнении с C. albicans (52,5 % против 28,6 %, соответственно, р &lt; 0,001). Значимо чаще продукция биопленок была у C. tropicalis (89, 5 %) и у C. krusei (75 %) в сравнении с C. parapsilosis (41,3 %), C. albicans (28,6 %) и C. glabrata (27 %, p &lt; 0,05). Частота образования биопленок была высокой для C. krusei и C. tropicalis в обеих группах больных, в то время как C. albicans, выделенные от больных без опухолей системы крови, достоверно чаще продуцировали биопленки, чем в группе сравнения (34,1 % против 18 % соответственно, p = 0,03). Продукция биопленок была сопоставимой среди Candida spp., выделенных из  гемокультуры (42,9 %) и из других стерильных образцов (35,8 %, р = 0,3).</p></sec><sec><title>Заключение</title><p> Заключение. Способность к  формированию биопленок различалась у  разных видов Candida и  преобладала у C. tropicalis и C. krusei. Продукция биопленок была выявлена с одинаковой частотой у больных опухолями и без опухолей системы крови.</p></sec></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><sec><title>Introduction</title><p>Introduction. Biofi lm-forming ability among Candida spp. on indwelling medical devices may have a negative infl uence on the outcome of invasive candidiasis in various groups of patients.</p></sec><sec><title>Aim</title><p> Aim. The objective of this study was to evaluate the biofi lm-forming ability among Candida spp. isolated from clinical specimens in patients with hematological malignancies and patients without hematological malignancies.</p></sec><sec><title>Materials and methods</title><p> Materials and methods. Biofi lm production among Candida spp. was studied using XTT (Sigma-Aldrich, USA) reduction assay. Candida spp. were classifi ed as biofi lm-forming, having optical density equal to and more than 0.1, and non-biofi lmforming with optical density less than 0.1.</p></sec><sec><title>Results</title><p> Results. A total of 428 Candida spp. (C. albicans n = 192, C. parapsilosis n = 121, C. krusei n = 40, C. tropicalis n = 38, C. glabrata n = 37) were evaluated (172 from hematological patients, 256 from non-hematological patients, 361 from blood culture, 67 from other sterile specimens). Biofi lm-forming ability was detected among 179 (41.8%) Candida spp. with the same rate in hematological patients and non-hematological patients (41.9 % and 41.8 %, respectively). Biofi lm production predominated among non-C. albicans (52.5 %) compared to C. albicans (28.6 %, p = 0.001). Biofi lm production prevailed among C. tropicalis (89.5 %) and C. krusei (75 %) compared to C. parapsilosis (41.3 %), C. albicans (28.6 %), and C. glabrata (27 %, respectively, p &lt; 0.05). Biofi lm-forming ability among C. tropicalis and C. krusei dominated in both groups of patients. Biofi lm production among C. albicans prevailed in non-hematological patients compared to hematological patients (34.1% vs 18.2%, p = 0.03). There were no differences in biofi lm production among Candida spp. isolated from blood culture (42.9%) and other sterile specimens (35.8%, p = 0.3).</p></sec><sec><title>Conclusion</title><p> Conclusion. Biofi lm-forming ability varied among the Candida spp. and prevailed among C. tropicalis and C. krusei. Biofi lm production among Candida spp. was detected with the same rate in hematological and non-hematological patients.</p></sec></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>кандидемия</kwd><kwd>Candida spp.</kwd><kwd>биопленки</kwd><kwd>опухоли системы крови</kwd><kwd>гемобластозы</kwd><kwd>отделение реанимации и интенсивной терапии</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>candidemia</kwd><kwd>Candida spp.</kwd><kwd>biofi lm production</kwd><kwd>hematological malignancies</kwd><kwd>intensive care unit</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Клясова Г.А., Мальчикова А.О., Тандилова К.С. и др.
