ABSTRACT:
The subject invention relates to A set of DNA primers which, when utilized in conjunction with the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay, can amplify and speciate DNA from four medically important Candida species. Furthermore, the PCR amplified products, generated by the primers, can also be used to create species specific probes which can also detect and confirm the four species of Candida. Thus, the present invention allows for early diagnosis and treatment of an infection.
