We retrospectively analyzed five Candida albicans isolates from two infection episodes in a single patient 6 months apart. Using contour-clamped homogeneous field electrophoresis (CHEF), random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) fingerprinting, and restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) complex probe 27A as means of molecular typing, we demonstrate an unvarying genotype amongst the infection-causing C....
