Isolation of Cryptococcus neoformans var. grubii (serotype A) from pigeon droppings in Seoul, Korea.

Hee Youn Chee1, Kyung Bok Lee.   

Abstract

Seventy-two pigeon dropping samples were collected from 26 different localities in Seoul and investigated for the occurrence of Cryptococcus neoformans. Seventeen samples from 8 different localities were found to be positive for C. neoformans. All isolates were obtained from withered pigeon droppings. Identification and serotyping of the isolates were determined by means of serological testing and DNA fingerprinting. All isolates belonged to C. neoformans var. grubbi (serotype A).
