Phenotypic and genotypic differentiation of several human and avian isolates of Cryptococcus neoformans.

Mycoses - 1 Nov 1998

Abstract excerpt

The Cryptococcus neoformans strains isolated from two human cases could be diagnosed as Cr. neoformans var. neoformans by differentiation on the basis of their characteristics determined by proline, canavanine and EDTA urease tests. The results of the serovar assignment were: for the isolate from the meningoencephalitis patient with lethal outcome, serovar A; for the strain isolated from the osteomyelitis patient...
