Results: For Aspergillus, 56% and 67% of the isolates were identified to the species level by using ITS and ß-tubulin analysis, respectively. Only D1/D2 analysis was useful for Trichophy¬ton identification, with 100% of isolates being identified to the species level. Performances of ITS and D1/D2 analyses were comparable for species-level identification of molds other than Aspergillus and Trichophyton. In contrast, the efficacy of ß-tubulin analysis was limited to genus identification because of the paucity of database information for this gene.
