Abstract excerpt

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the pathogenicity of Acanthamoeba strains with T4, T5, T11, and T12 genotypes by comparing the osmotolerance and thermotolerance characteristics of Acanthamoeba strains isolated from genotype groups, within species with the same genotype, and from environmental and keratitis cases. Methods: In this study, after axenic cultures of 22 Acanthamoeba strains with T4...
