Rapid identification of allergenic and pathogenic molds in environmental air by an oligonucleotide array
13 Apr 2011
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Airborne fungi play an important role in causing allergy and infections in susceptible people. Identification of these fungi, based on morphological characteristics, is time-consuming, expertise-demanding, and could be inaccurate. METHODS: We developed an oligonucleotide array that could accurately identify 21 important airborne fungi (13 genera) that may cause adverse health problems. The method...
