Abstract excerpt
The genetic variability of 19 Toxoplasma gondii strains isolated from humans and animals in Brazil was detected by both random amplified polymorphic DNA-polymerase chain reaction (RAPD-PCR) and simple sequence repeat anchored-PCR (SSR-PCR) for the first time. Two reference strains, RH (highly virulent) and ME49 (avirulent), were submitted to both assays. Besnoitia sp., Plasmodium falciparum and Babesia bigemina...
