Identifying indoor air Penicillium species: a challenge for allergic patients.

CONCLUSION: Complete coherence between MALDI-TOF MS and sequence-based identification was found for P. chrysogenum, P. expansum, P. glabrum, Penicillium italicum and Penicillium corylophilum. The main drawback was observed for Penicillium crustosum, which included 21 strains (7.6 %) that could not be identified using MALDI-TOF MS. PMID: 30990400 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
