Diagnostic Kit for Aspergillus Fumigatus Species

摘要

The use of the Ayg1 gene or an RNA transcript of the Ayg1 gene or fragments thereof as target regions in a diagnostic assay for the eukaryotic organism Aspergillus fumigatus species is described. The unique sequence of the Ayg1 gene in Aspergillus fumigatus provides the basis of nucleic acid diagnostic test for the identification of the pathogen at a the molecular level.
