DETECTION OF CRYPTOCOCCUS NEOFORMANS BY SEMINESTED PCR IN CEREBROSPINAL FLUID

 ABSTRACT Life-threatening infections caused by the encapsulated fungal pathogen Cryptococcus neoformans have been increasing steadily over the past 10 years. Cryptococcus neoformans is recognized as the most frequent fungal infection of the central nervous system (CNS) in immunocompetent as well as immunocompromised patients. We report the development of a semi-nested- PCR-based assay for the ...

Comparison of patient-collected and lab technician-collected nasopharyngeal and oropharyngeal swabs for detection of COVID-19 by RT-PCR

Background & Objective:  A simple approach to prevent close contact in healthcare settings during the COVID-19 outbreak is to train patients to collect their own nasopharyngeal and oropharyngeal swabs and deliver them to medical laboratories to have them processed. The aim of our study was to c...

Detection of meningococcal carriage by culture and PCR of throat swabs and mouth gargles.

The standard method for detecting meningococcal carriage is culture of throat swabs on selective media, but the levels of carriage determined depend heavily on the skills of the individuals taking the swab and interpreting the cultures. This study aimed to determine the most sensitive detection method for meningococcal carriage. Throat swabs and saline mouth gargles, obtained from 89 university...

Enhanced detection of Legionnaires' disease by PCR testing of induced sputum and throat swabs.

Legionnaires’ disease, particularly that caused by non-pneumophila species, is notoriously underdiagnosed [1, 2]. We recently found a four-fold increase in case detection of Legionnaires’ disease through a laboratory-initiated strategy of systematic PCR testing for Legionella species of all lower respiratory specimens from patients with pneumonia or immune compromised status [3]. This strategy ...

Detection of Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae in lungs and nasal swabs of pigs by nested PCR

Fifty-four samples were collected from growing and finishing pigs for the molecular diagnosis of enzootic porcine pneumonia. Nineteen lung fragments were obtained from pigs that showed signs of respiratory disease and 35 nasal swabs were obtained from clinically healthy pigs. For the detection of the bacterial genome in the samples, the nested PCR technique was used to amplify a fragment of 706...
