Application of molecular typing methods to dermatophyte species that cause skin and nail infections.
Typing methods utilising DNA technology were applied to a collection of Trichophyton mentagrophytes and T. rubrum isolates from skin and nail infections. The methods included restriction enzyme analysis (REA), hybridisation with the DNA probe poly (dG-dT), randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) by PCR and restriction analysis of a segment of PCR-amplified rDNA. All these tests successfully d...
متن کاملFive-Hour Diagnosis of Dermatophyte Nail Infections
24 A rapid two step DNA extraction method and a multiplex PCR for the detection of 25 dermatophytes in general and Trichophyton (T.) rubrum specifically were developed and 26 evaluated on DNA extracted from pure cultures and from clinically diseased nails. DNA 27 from the following dermatophytes were used: Epidermophyton floccosum, Microsporum 28 (M.) audouinii, M. canis, M. gypseum, M. nanum, ...
متن کاملCurrent application and future perspectives of molecular typing methods to study Clostridium difficile infections.
Molecular typing is an essential tool to monitor Clostridium difficile infections and outbreaks within healthcare facilities. Molecular typing also plays a key role in defining the regional and global changes in circulating C. difficile types. The patterns of C. difficile types circulating within Europe (and globally) remain poorly understood, although international efforts are under way to und...
متن کاملDermatophyte Virulence Factors: Identifying and Analyzing Genes That May Contribute to Chronic or Acute Skin Infections
Dermatophytes are prevalent causes of cutaneous mycoses and, unlike many other fungal pathogens, are able to cause disease in immunocompetent individuals. They infect keratinized tissue such as skin, hair, and nails, resulting in tinea infections, including ringworm. Little is known about the molecular mechanisms that underlie the ability of these organisms to establish and maintain infection. ...
متن کاملconstruction and validation of translation metacognitive strategy questionnaire and its application to translation quality
like any other learning activity, translation is a problem solving activity which involves executing parallel cognitive processes. the ability to think about these higher processes, plan, organize, monitor and evaluate the most influential executive cognitive processes is what flavell (1975) called “metacognition” which encompasses raising awareness of mental processes as well as using effectiv...
