Popis: Abstract Background To investigate the positive rate and clinical applicability of liquid—based fungal method for detecting of vaginal fungi. We collect the secretions from the posterior vaginal fornix and the vaginal wall of 198 patients with clinically suspected fungi vaginitis patients for study. Methods The vaginal fungi of vaginal discharge were detected by fluorescence method, i.e., by liquid—based thin-layer fungi fluorescence morphology staining detection kit (liquid—based fungal method), saline smear method and fungal culture method. Results The positive rate of liquid-based fungal method, saline smear method was 50%, 25.75% respectively. The positive rate of liquid-based fungal method were 50%. The true positive rate of liquid-based fungal method (87.85%) was higher than that of saline smear method (45.79%, P
