Detection of Multiple Nosocomial Trichosporon asahii Transmission Events via Microsatellite Typing Assay, South America
26 Aug 2025
Abstract excerpt
The fungus Trichosporon asahii has emerged as a cause of nosocomial infections, particularly in immunocompromised patients. Given its rising prevalence, information on its genetic diversity and transmission dynamics is urgently needed. We developed a microsatellite typing tool to investigate the genetic relatedness of T. asahii isolates. We selected 6 microsatellite markers from nanopore long-read sequencing of...
