Fungal pathogen in microbial keratitis
Evaluation of PCR method to detect fungal pathogen in microbial keratitis
Microbial keratitis is a serious ocular infection. It is often difficult to establish a microbial keratitis that is due to fungal infection. Inadequate therapy and delayed diagnosis of fungal keratitis leads to generally poor visual outcomes. The objective of this study is to determine the sensitivity and specificity of PCR to detect fungal pathogen in microbial keratitis. In this study, a PCR method was compared to the conventional method to detect fungal pathogen in microbial keratitis. The PCR was performed with primers pair F1,R2 and F3,R4 from two consecutive regions in the 18S rRNA gene. Positive result for PCR was considered when there…
