561 Penicillium marneffei infection (PM) is an important disease among HIV-infected persons in Southeast Asia. Discovered in 1956 from the bamboo rat, Rhizomys sinensis, in Vietnam (1), PM was first identified in HIV-infected persons in 1988 (2). The disease has now been reported among HIV-infected persons in Thailand, Myanmar and Japan after they visited the PM-endemic region (3). PM occurs la...
متن کاملRestriction endonuclease analysis of Penicillium marneffei.
Forty-six isolates of Penicillium marneffei were differentiated into two DNA types on the basis of their restriction fragment length polymorphisms. Of the 22 human isolates of P. marneffei, 16 (72.7%) were type I and 6 (27.3%) were type II. Of the 23 bamboo rat isolates, 20 from Rhizomys sumatrensis were type I and 3 from Cannomys badius were type II. The soil isolate was type II. These data re...
