Establishment of a rapid diagnosis method for Candida glabrata based on the ITS2 gene using recombinase polymerase amplification combined with lateral flow strips

Abstract excerpt

Candida glabrata is the second or third most common Candida-associated species isolated from hospital-acquired infections, surpassing even C. albicans in some hospitals. With the rapid progression of the disease course of C. glabrata infections, there is an urgent need for a rapid and sensitive on-site assay for clinical diagnosis. Isothermal amplification is a recently developed method for rapid nucleic acid...
