Abstract excerpt
The aim of this study was to genotype Candida albicans strains isolated from patients with invasive and non-invasive deep-seated infections. For this purpose, 301 C. albicans isolates (81 invasive and 220 non-invasive) were genotyped by using specific PCR primers designed to span the transposable group I intron of the 25S rDNA gene. Fifty-three of the 81 invasive isolates were genotype A (65.4%), eight were...
