Standardization and Clinical Evaluation of a Real-Time PCR Assay for the Diagnosis of Pneumocystis jirovecii Pneumonia

2025-08-11

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> Background <italic>Pneumocystis jirovecii</italic> pneumonia (PjP) is a life-threatening infection in immunocompromised individuals. Its diagnosis remains challenging, especially in microscopy-negative cases. This study aimed to standardize and validate a qPCR assay targeting the <italic>mtLSU rRNA</italic> gene for detecting <italic>P. jirovecii</italic> DNA in respiratory samp...
