We compared PCR, galactomannan detection assay using a latex agglutination test and (1→3)-β-D-glucan detection assay in detecting infection in rats experimentally infected with Aspergillus fumigatus. On day 2 after inoculation, (1→3)-β-D-glucan and nested PCR were positive for 80%, while galactomann
