Abstract excerpt
The present study compares the allelic profiles of Giardia intestinalis grown in vivo and in vitro. Three clinical isolates of G. intestinalis were established in suckling mice and subsequently adapted to in vitro culture to test the null hypothesis that samples of the same clinical isolate grown in different culture conditions have identical allelic profiles. For each isolate, a mouse-derived and an axenically...
