  • Title: Multilocus genotyping indicates that the ability to invade the bloodstream is widespread among Candida albicans isolates.
    Author: Luu LN, Cowen LE, Sirjusingh C, Kohn LM, Anderson JB.
    Journal: J Clin Microbiol; 2001 Apr; 39(4):1657-60. PubMed ID: 11283111.
    Abstract:
    Multilocus genotyping was used to compare populations of Candida albicans from oral mucosa and blood. No significant differences in allele frequencies between the two samples were detected, and in a dendrogram of genotypic similarities, genotypes from both types of samples were finely interspersed. This is evidence for widespread distribution of invasive potential.
