Identification of Candida spp. by Randomly Amplified Polymorphic DNA Analysis and Differentiation between Candida albicans and Candida dubliniensis by Direct PCR Methods

Abstract excerpt

Because Candida species have innately highly variable antifungal susceptibilities, the availability of a fast and reliable species identification test is very important so that suitable and effective therapeutic measures may be taken. Using three oligonucleotide primers, we established a randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis method that enabled direct identification of the most common opportunistic...
