The use of suckling mice to isolate and grow Giardia from mammalian faecal specimens for genetic analysis.

Parasitology - 1 Oct 1992

Mayrhofer G, Andrews R H, Ey P L, Albert M J, Grimmond T R, Merry D J

Abstract excerpt

A simple technique is described for preparation of Giardia cysts from faecal samples, the growth of trophozoites in suckling mice and the isolation of trophozoites for genetic analysis by allozyme electrophoresis. In total, 125 new isolates of Giardia have been collected from human and animal sources over a wide geographical area of South Australia and the Northern Territory of Australia. A number of...
