Enhanced Blastocystis subtyping from stool samples using semi-nested barcode PCR: validation with an NGS-based approach

In 2006, a PCR method was introduced to subtype Blastocystis by Sanger sequencing of an ≈610 bp amplicon of the 18S rRNA gene. This method, known as barcoding-PCR, has become widespread, although the primer pair used can amplify non-Blastocystis sequences, which can result in false positives. Barcod...
