Identification of contaminating fungal DNA sequences in Zymolyase.
نویسندگان
چکیده
When different preparations of Zymolyase were included in the pretreatment protocol of a panfungal PCR assay using a primer system for the 18S rRNA gene, an amplification product occurred in negative controls. The amplified fragment showed 100.0% sequence identity to the Saccharomyces sensu stricto complex and Kluyveromyces lodderae. Lyticase, lysing enzymes, and proteinase K appeared to be free from fungal DNA.

Human fungal diseases are largely a 20th and 21st century’s phenomenon. Due to use of corticosteroids and antibacterial drug, medical developmenta are associated with increased risk for number of fungal disease. These nosocomial developments in invasive mycosis were paralleled over the last two decades by the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) pandemic, which has resulted in an even larger numb...
متن کاملContaminations occurring in fungal PCR assays.
Successful in vitro amplification of fungal DNA in clinical specimens has been reported recently. In a collaboration among five European centers, the frequency and risk of contamination due to airborne spore inoculation or carryover contamination in fungal PCR were analyzed. The identities of all contaminants were specified by cycle sequencing and GenBank analysis. Twelve of 150 PCR assays that...

30 milled rice samples were collected from retailers in four states of Malaysia. These samples were evaluated for Eurotium spp. contaminations by direct plating on malt extract salt agar (MESA). All Eurotium were isolated and identified based on morphology and nucleotide sequences of internal transcribed spacer 1 (ITS1) and ITS2 of the rDNA. Four Eurotium species (E. rubrum, E. amstelodami, E....
