Here we report the development of an oligonucleotide microarray method that can identify fungal pathogens in a single reaction.Specific oligonucleotide probes targeted to internal transcribed spacer 2 were designed and synthesized.Fungal DNA was amplified by universal primers,and the PCR product was hybridized with the oligonucleotide microarray.A series of specific hybridization profiles corresponding to species were obtained.The 122 strains of fungal pathogens,including standard and clinically isolated strains,used to test the specificity,stability,and sensitivity of the microarray system belonged to 20 species representing 8 genera.We found that the microarray system can successfully discriminate among the fungal pathogens to the species level,with high specificity and stability.The sensitivity was 15 pg/ml of DNA.This oligonucleotide microarray system represents a rapid,simple,and reliable alternative to conventional methods of identifying.
