Comparison of sequencing (barcode region) and sequence-tagged-site PCR for Blastocystis subtyping.

Journal of clinical microbiology - 1 Jan 2013

Stensvold Christen Rune

Abstract excerpt

Blastocystis is the most common nonfungal microeukaryote of the human intestinal tract and comprises numerous subtypes (STs), nine of which have been found in humans (ST1 to ST9). While efforts continue to explore the relationship between human health status and subtypes, no consensus regarding subtyping methodology exists. It has been speculated that differences detected in subtype distribution in various...
