Development of a Nested Polymerase Chain Reaction Assay for the Detection and Identification of <i>Pythium insidiosum</i>
1 Mar 2002
Abstract excerpt
Pythium insidiosum is an important cause of cutaneous and gastrointestinal disease in horses and dogs in the southeastern United States. Culture-based diagnosis of pythiosis is rarely definitive because production and identification of reproductive structures is difficult. The purpose of this study was to develop a polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based assay for the identification of P insidiosum. Genomic DNA was...
