摘要
Primers complementary to the region of genes coding for rRNA in Candida albicans were used in PCRs to detect yeast DNA extracted from blood samples containing various Candida specie$. One fragment (105 bp) was amplified from all yeasts tested, whereas a second (684 bp) was only amplified when C. albicans DNA was present. The level of sensitivity was 15 +/- 5 (mean +/- standard error) CFU of C. albicans per ml of blood.
