Abstract excerpt
The genetic polymorphism among 57 Cryptosporidium parvum isolates belonging to genotype 'C' was studied by PCR amplification and the sequencing of two microsatellite loci (ML1 and ML2). A comparative analysis of DNA sequences showed the presence of three (ML1-238, ML1-226, and ML1-220) and seven (ML2-231, ML2-229, ML2-227, ML2-213, ML2-193, ML2-191, and ML2-187) different alleles at these two loci. Alleles...
