Identification and Genetic Comparison of Leishmanial Parasites Causing Viscerotropic and Cutaneous Disease in Soldiers Returing from Operation Desert Storm

1 Sept 1993

Abstract excerpt

Six Leishmania major and seven L. tropica parasites were isolated and identified from participants in Operation Desert Shield/Storm. A complete enzyme analysis (21 enzymes) revealed that there was enzyme polymorphism among the isolates of each species group. Any one Desert Storm L. major isolate could differ from any other for 1-3 enzymes, and any L. tropica isolate could differ from any one other for up to eight...
