Rapid Tetra-Primer Amplification Refractory Mutation System-Polymerase Chain Reaction Protocol for Detection of Y132F Mutation in Fluconazole Resistant Candida parapsilosis.

Abstract excerpt

There is an emerging fluconazole resistance in Candida parapsilosis in recent years. The leading mechanism causing azole resistance in C. parapsilosis is the Y132F codon alteration in the ERG11 gene which encodes the target enzyme of azole drugs. In this study, we evaluated the sensitivity, compatibility, and specificity of a novel tetra-primer amplification refractory mutation system-polymerase chain reaction...
