Abstract excerpt

A total of 98 respiratory specimens from 88 patients suspected of having Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PcP) were evaluated using a previously reported nested polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay for mitochondrial large subunit rRNA (mtLSUrRNA). In addition, samples from patients with other pulmonary infections and a sizeable DNA collection from other fungal pathogens were studied. A panfungal PCR assay...
