Molecular genotyping of Candida parapsilosis group I clinical isolates by analysis of polymorphic microsatellite markers.

Journal of clinical microbiology - 1 Mar 2006

Abstract excerpt

Candida parapsilosis, a pathogenic yeast, is composed of three newly designated genomic species that are physiologically and morphologically indistinguishable. Nosocomial infections caused by group I C. parapsilosis are often associated with the breakdown of infection control practices and the contamination of medical devices, solutions, and indwelling catheters. Due to the low levels of nucleotide sequence...
