CohortTo evaluate the discriminatory power of the microsatellite markers, 138 clinically independent C. glabrata isolates and one reference strain were genotyped. These isolates were collected from different adult patients over a 1-year period from different hospitals and wards. They were collected from the Henri-Mondor Hospital, a 1,000-bed university hospital (85 isolates); from the Versailles Hospital, a 600-bed general hospital (36 isolates); and from outpatients referred to our hospitals (17 isolates). Only one isolate per patient was considered. A total of 67 males and 71 females were sampled.
