PCR-based identification of zoonotic isolates of Blastocystis from mammals and birds.

Microbiology (Reading, England) - 1 May 2004

Yoshikawa Hisao, Abe Niichiro, Wu Zhiliang

Abstract excerpt

The genotype of Blastocystis isolated from humans and animals is highly polymorphic. Therefore, it is important to compare the genotypes of Blastocystis isolates from humans and animals to determine the zoonotic potential of animal isolates. PCR-based genotype classification using known sequence-tagged site (STS) primers allows identification of zoonotic isolates of animal origin. To this end, 51 isolates from...
