The authors conducted investigation on the candida group obtained from 243 cases of pulmonary tuberculosis. Results were as follows:
1) Isolation rates of candida group from sputa and feces of the cases were 54.6% and 56.5%, respectively. No significant relation both by sex and age was obtained in the isolation rate.
2) In the comparison among the cases having and not having been administered with SM, PAS or INH, isolation rate was practically equal among them as far as SM concerned, while as for INH and PAS, the rate was higher in the administered cases.
3) Comparison between drug resistant cases and susceptible cases revealed that the isolation rate was higher in the former. In the far advanced cases it was higher than the minor cases.
4) Candida albicans was predominant in the isolated candida group, and the growth of candida was not accelerated by SM, PAS, INH or Penicillin.
