Evaluation of Droplet Digital PCR Assay for the Diagnosis of Candidemia in Blood Samples

Numerous studies have shown that droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) is a promising tool for the diagnosis of pathogens, especially in samples with low concentrations of pathogenic DNA. An early diagnosis of candidemia is critical for the effective treatment of patients. In this study, we evaluated the sens...
