Application of PCR fingerprinting using (GACA)4 primer in the rapid discrimination of dermatophytes.

Indian journal of medical microbiology - 1 Jan 2000

Elavarashi E, Kindo A J, Kalyani J, Sudha R

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Superficial fungal infections have a major impact on cosmetic health, affecting more than 20-25% of the global population, which is predominantly caused by dermatophytes. As per literature search, molecular strain typing of dermatophytes has not been investigated in India. Therefore, the present study was carried out to characterise the dermatophyte species and strains by molecular methods. OBJECTIVE:...
