The aim of our study was to investigate the role of procalcitonine (PCT), of CRP and of mannan antigens (CM) and galactomannan (GM) in bacterial and fungal infections in neutropenic and non-neutropenic patients. PCT was measured by an immunoluminometric assay, CRP by nephelometry and antigens by Platelia Elisa. Low values of PCT were observed in patients with systemic aspergillosis and systemic candidiasis while high values of PCT (>1 ng/ml) were observed in patients with gram(-) bacteremia and severe sepsis. Antigens had moderate diagnostic value in the diagnosis of fungal infections which increased when their values were combined with the values of PCT the first day of fever, on day 10 of fever. PCT levels >1 ng/ml were correlated with a ...
