Candida bracarensis is a recently described Candida species which is phenotypically similar to Candida glabrata. A case of C. bracarensis bloodstream infection in a bone marrow transplant patient is described and confirms this organism as an opportunistic human pathogen. The organism can be distinguished from C. glabrata by its white color on CHROMagar and by DNA sequence analysis using D1/D2 and internal transcribed spacer (ITS) primers.
布拉氏假丝酵母是最近描述的一种假丝酵母属物种,其表型与光滑假丝酵母相似。本文描述了一例骨髓移植患者的布拉氏假丝酵母血流感染病例,证实该菌为机会性人类病原体。该菌可通过 CHROMagar 上的白色颜色和 D1/D2 和内部转录间隔区(ITS)引物的 DNA 序列分析与光滑假丝酵母区分开来。
