MULTI-LOCUS NEXT-GENERATION SEQUENCE TYPING OF DNA EXTRACTED FROM POOLED COLONIES DETECTS MULTIPLE UNRELATED CANDIDA ALBICANS STRAINS IN A SIGNIFICANT PROPORTION OF PATIENT SAMPLES

The yeast Candida albicans is an important opportunistic human pathogen.For C.albicans strain typing or drug susceptibility testing, a single colony recovered from a patient sample is normally used.This is insufficient when multiple strains are present at the site sampled.How often this is the case is unclear.Previous studies, confined to oral, vag
