Rapid detection of terbinafine resistance in Trichophyton species by Amplified refractory mutation system-polymerase chain reaction
28 Jan 2020
Abstract excerpt
Abstract Dermatophytosis has gained interest in India due to rise in terbinafine resistance and difficulty in management of recalcitrant disease. The terbinafine resistance in dermatophytes is attributed to single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in squalene epoxidase (SE) gene. We evaluated the utility of amplified refractory mutation system polymerase chain reaction (ARMS PCR) for detection of previously...
