Molecular detection of Histoplasma capsulatum var. capsulatum in human clinical samples.

Andrea Bracca1, María Elena Tosello, Javier E Girardini, Susana L Amigot, Carlos Gomez, Esteban Serra.   

Abstract

We developed a seminested PCR for the diagnosis of histoplasmosis that amplifies a portion of the Histoplasma capsulatum H antigen gene. This assay is highly sensitive and specific, being able to detect genomic material corresponding to less than 10 yeast cells without cross-reaction against other bacterial or fungal pathogens.
