Figure 6From: Characterization and quantification of the fungal microbiome in serial samples from individuals with cystic fibrosisQuantification of fungal and bacterial burden in CF subjects. (A) Quantification of the fungal burden of sputum samples from CF subjects. Total fungal burden was determined by amplifying the 18S rDNA locus by qPCR. (B) Quantification of the bacterial burden of sputum samples from cystic fibrosis subjects. Total bacterial burden was determined by amplifying the 16Â s rRNA locus by real-time qPCR.Back to article page
