Standardization of a two-step real-time polymerase chain reaction based method for species-specific detection of medically important Aspergillus species

Conclusion: The present protocol of two-step real-time PCR assays for genus- and species-specific identification for commonly isolated species in whole blood for diagnosis of invasive Aspergillus infections offers a rapid, sensitive and specific assay option and requires clinical validation at multiple centers.
