Single-tube classical PCR for Candida auris and Candida haemulonii identification.

CONCLUSIONS: We present a PCR method able to unequivocally identify C. auris and differentiate it from C. haemulonii. It is inexpensive, fast and it could be a useful tool to reduce the chances of a C. auris outbreak.
