Novel intein-containing DNA specific primers for rapid identification of Candida glabrata using Real-Time PCR assays
2014, Journal of Medical MycologyCitation Excerpt :Detection and discrimination of Candida spp. causing candidiasis is still a grey area. Real-Time PCR assays with non-specific fluorescent dye SYBR® Green is a pre-eminent choice for molecular detection of fungal pathogens [11,19], but again, it requires precise selection of the target sequences. Internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions are molecular targets for detection of Candida spp.

2011, International Journal of Food MicrobiologyCitation Excerpt :Identification of the yeasts was carried out by classic microbial methods (morphology, biochemistry tests) and was confirmed by ITS sequence analysis. DNA preparation and amplification with ITS86/ITS4 primers was carried out as reported earlier (Somogyvári et al., 2007). The purified PCR products were sequenced by the fluorescent dye-terminator method.
