Typing of Saccharomyces cerevisiae clinical strains by using microsatellite sequence polymorphism.
It seems that S. cerevisiae, which was thought for about 30 years to be a nonpathogenic yeast, should now be considered an opportunistic pathogen. In this study, we estimated the discrimination ability of the microsatellite sequence amplification technique within a sample of clinical and reference S. cerevisiae strains and S. boulardii reference strains.
