  • Title: Microsatellite multilocus genotyping clarifies the relationship of Candida parapsilosis strains involved in a neonatal intensive care unit outbreak.
    Author: Vaz C, Sampaio P, Clemons KV, Huang YC, Stevens DA, Pais C.
    Journal: Diagn Microbiol Infect Dis; 2011 Oct; 71(2):159-62. PubMed ID: 21840674.
    Abstract:
    Microsatellite typing of 25 Candida parapsilosis isolates from a described outbreak in a neonatal intensive care showed 2 large groups of blood isolates that were related to hand isolates from specific hospital staff, not infant-colonizing isolates. These results demonstrate the power of this typing tool in clarifying epidemiologic associations.
