Rapid Mini-Preparation of Fungal DNA for PCR [PDF]
Nucleic acid detection methods such as PCR have become a common tool for microbial identification and diagnosis. Although PCR amplification can be performed directly for various microbial cultures, for filamentous fungi and yeasts, prior isolation of DNA is often preferred.

DNA metabarcoding has become a powerful approach for analysing complex communities from environmental samples, but there are still methodological challenges limiting its full potential. While conserved DNA markers, like 16S and 18S, often are not able to

A simple method for extraction of fungal genomic DNA [PDF]
We have developed a new, simple and effective method for extraction of fungal genomic DNA. The initial steps involved suspension of freeze-dried mycelium in buffer containing sodium dodecyl sulphate, detachment of DNA from polysaccharides by mild shearing, NaCl precipitation of polysaccharides and protein, chloroform extraction and ethanol ...

Candida glabrata: A Lot More Than Meets the Eye
Candida glabrata is an opportunistic human fungal pathogen that causes superficial mucosal and life-threatening bloodstream infections in individuals with a compromised immune system. Evolutionarily, it is closer to the non-pathogenic yeast Saccharomyces

Use of magnetic beads to extract fungal DNA [PDF]
SummaryAuthors compare two methods of extracting DNA from different fungi: the classic method with phenol/chloroform (P/C) and that with magnetic beads. Both were tested on Candida albicans and Cryptococcus neoformans var. neoformans, belonging to the yeast group and Microsporum canis, M. gypseum, Trichophyton rubrum, T. interdigitale, T.

Mycelial DNA persistence in a forest soil
Living fungi can be identified and monitored in their soil habitat using an array of molecular methods. However, DNA originating from dead fungal tissue may become stabilized in the soil and remain detectable for some time after cell death rendering ...

Identification of Contaminating Fungal DNA Sequences in Zymolyase [PDF]
ABSTRACT When different preparations of Zymolyase were included in the pretreatment protocol of a panfungal PCR assay using a primer system for the 18S rRNA gene, an amplification product occurred in negative controls. The amplified fragment showed 100.0% sequence identity to the Saccharomyces sensu ...

Evolutionary Relationship and the Sequence Similarities among Different Fungal Species Infecting Birds Captured from Different Areas in Denmark [PDF]
Fungal diseases are the common cause of death in wild animals and birds of prey. This study was designed to investigate the development of fungal infections among wild birds in Denmark.
