Isolation and characterization of a species-specific DNA fragment for identification of Candida (Torulopsis) glabrata by PCR.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A PCR specific for Candida glabrata that amplifies a mitochondrial rRNA gene fragment was developed by analysis of C. glabrata-specific agarose gel bands, which were generated by arbitrarily primed PCR. The expected PCR product was successfully amplified with genomic DNA from 95 C. glabrata isolates but not from a number of other fungal isolates.
