ABSTRACT Forty-two putative Cryptococcus laurentii isolates identified by the Vitek 2 system were collected in China. The gold standard, internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequencing, confirmed that only two isolates were genuine C. laurentii . Bruker Biotyper matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization–time of flight mass spectrometry was able to identify the C. laurentii isolates with an expanded custom database.
