Home sputum collection for <i>Aspergillus fumigatus</i> detection in adults with cystic fibrosis
Home sputum collection is feasible in adults with CF. <i>Af</i> was detected in remotely collected sputum samples. Further work to assess the validity of home sputum samples in PwCF is necessary to determine the value of remote specimens in clinical and research settings.
