Broad Range PCR Assay for Fungi-Directly on Clinical Samples: Introduction, Principle, Clinical Significance, and Keynotes
Introduction Broad-range PCR assays for fungi are molecular diagnostic methods designed to detect a wide spectrum of fungal pathogens directly from clinical samples such as blood, BAL, sputum, CSF, tissue biopsies, and sterile body fluids.These assays target highly conserved fungal genomic regions, primarily the Internal …
