Molecular Tools for Candida auris Identification and Typing.

Identification of Candida auris by conventional identification methodologies can be challenging. While whole genome sequencing is seen as the golden standard to genotype C. auris at an inter- and intraspecies level, it is costly and time-consuming. Sequencing the transcribed spacer (ITS) region and microsatellite typing provide simple, fast, and inexpensive alternatives for identification and genotyping of C. auris. Here we will describe both molecular approaches. © 2022. The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.
