Identification of Balamuthia mandrillaris by PCR Assay Using the Mitochondrial 16S rRNA Gene as a Target

Balamuthia mandrillaris is an opportunistic pathogen that causes granulomatous amebic meningoencephalitis in animals, including humans. Based on sequence analysis of mitochondrial small-subunit-rRNA genes, we developed primers that amplify a Balamuthia-specific PCR product. These primers will be use...
