PCR-based DNA fingerprinting of Giardia duodenalis isolates using the intergenic rDNA spacer.

Parasitology - 1 Jun 1999

Abstract excerpt

The potential for the non-coding intergenic rDNA spacer (IGS) to DNA fingerprint Giardia duodenalis isolates was investigated. Conserved PCR primers, specific for the flanking large and small rDNA genes, were used to amplify the IGS from 52 in vitro-cultured Giardia isolates. Four distinct IGS-PCR size groups (1.35-1.6 kb) were observed, which correlated closely with the major genetic assemblages established...
