Abstract excerpt
There is a paucity of information about genotypic heterogeneity among Candida dubliniensis isolates recovered from different geographic regions. This study explored genotypic heterogeneity among 103 C. dubliniensis strains obtained over a six-year period from clinical specimens in Kuwait. Genotype assignment was based on amplification with genotype-specific primers and sequencing of rDNA. Susceptibility to...
