The invention relates to a method of identifying a specific fungal species in patient tissue or body fluid. The method comprises the steps of extracting and recovering DNA of the fungal species from the patient tissue or body fluid, amplifying the DNA, hybridizing a probe to the DNA to specifically identify the fungal species, and specifically identifying the fungal species. The invention also relates to a method of identifying a mycotoxin in patient tissue or body fluid. The method comprises the steps of extracting and recovering the mycotoxin from the patient tissue or body fluid, contacting the mycotoxin with an antibody directed against the mycotoxin, and identifying the myocotoxin. Both of these methods can be used to determine if a patient is at risk for or has developed a disease state related to a fungal infection, and to develop an effective treatment regimen for the patient.
本发明涉及一种鉴定患者组织或体液中特定真菌种类的方法。该方法包括以下步骤:从患者组织或体液中提取和回收真菌物种的 DNA,扩增 DNA,将探针与 DNA 杂交以特异性鉴定真菌物种,以及特异性鉴定真菌物种。本发明还涉及一种鉴定患者组织或体液中霉菌毒素的方法。该方法包括以下步骤:从患者组织或体液中提取和回收霉菌毒素,将霉菌毒素与针对霉菌毒素的抗体接触,以及鉴定霉菌毒素。这两种方法都可用于确定患者是否有可能或已经出现与真菌感染有关的疾病状态,并为患者制定有效的治疗方案。
