PCR detection of the Cryptococcus neoformans CAPS9 gene from a biopsy specimen from a case of feline cryptococcosis

R Kano et al. J Vet Diagn Invest. 2001 Sep.

Abstract

A polymerase chain reaction assay was developed to detect Cryptococcus neoformans in biopsy samples. The assay detects the CAP59 gene of Cryptococcus neoformans and was used to substantiate cutaneous cryptococcosis in a 5-year-old cat submitted to the Veterinary Medicine Center at the University of Tokyo.
