Application of Real-time PCR Platform for Detection of Vittaforma Corneae Among Patients With Microsporidia Keratitis

NCT03551639 · Status: WITHDRAWN · Type: OBSERVATIONAL

Last updated 2019-10-08

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Diagnosis of patients with microsporiosis relies on pathological findings as well as laboratory detection of the causative organism. The conventional laboratory diagnosis of microsporiosis relies on microscopic visualization of the characteristic V. Corneae organisms. We develop a fully automated molecular platform for detection of Vittaforma corneae among patients with microsporidia keratitis.
