Abstract excerpt
DNA amplification using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) primers aiming at eukaryotic or prokaryotic repetitive DNA motifs enables discrimination between individual Candida albicans isolates. This PCR-mediated DNA fingerprinting procedure was used to monitor yeast colonisation in immune-compromised leukaemia patients (n = 11) who were undergoing bone marrow transplantation (BMT). The leukaemia patients remained...
