In this study, we aimed to develop molecular assay based on real-time PCR for sensitive and accurate detection of C. parapsilosis and C. orthopsilosis . A pair of primers that specifically target on both of these yeast species was designed and real-time PCR amplification assay was optimized using EvaGreen as the DNA binding dye. The optimized assay could detect and quantify up to 1 pg concentration of C. parapsilosis and C. orthopsilosis DNA with amplification efficiency of 104% and 103%, respectively. Both the designed primers and the quantitative assay will have a great potential as molecular diagnosis tool for early detection of fungal infection caused by either C. parapsilosis or C. orthopsilosis , which merits future clinical study prior to use in diagnosis.","PeriodicalId":89629,"journal":{"name":"The journal of bioscience and medicine","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-06-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71006307","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
