Novel Duplex Polymerase Chain Reaction for the Rapid Detection of Pythium insidiosum Directly From Corneal Specimens of Patients With Ocular Pythiosis

Conclusions:
The novel duplex PCR developed in this study will aid in rapid identification of P. insidiosum clinical isolates and clinical specimens from suspected ocular pythiosis specimens, which in turn will help the ophthalmologists to initiate appropriate treatment.
