Development of a Loop‐Mediated Isothermal Amplification Assay for Rapid Detection of Trichosporon asahii in Experimental and Clinical Samples

open access: yesBioMed Research International, Volume 2015, Issue 1, 2015., 2015
Invasive trichosporonosis is a deep mycosis found mainly in immunocompromised hosts, and the major pathogen is Trichosporon asahii. We detected the species‐specific intergenic spacers (IGS) of rRNA gene of T. asahii using a loop‐mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) assay in 15 isolates with 3 different visualization methods, including SYBR green ...
