Abstract excerpt
Pulsed field gel electrophoretic karyotypes of Pneumocystis carinii derived from three sources were compared: immunosuppressed virus-free rats transtracheally inoculated with Pneumocystis-infected rat lung; WI-38 cell/Cytodex bead cell cultures inoculated with the same material; and immunosuppressed ferrets which reactivated latent Pneumocystis pneumonia. Karyotypes of DNA from Pneumocystis trophozoites or cysts...
