Presence of cholinesterases inEchinococcus granulosusprotoscolices [PDF]
Cholinesterases were detected in protoscolices of Echinococcus granulosus spectrophotometrically and electrophoretically. To characterize these activities as acetylcholinesterases or pseudocholinesterases, BW284C51 and the organophosphate anthelmintic Neguvón were assayed as specific inhibitors of acetylcholinesterases, while Iso-OMPA was employed as ...

A multiplex PCR for the simultaneous detection and genotyping of the Echinococcus granulosus complex. [PDF]
Echinococcus granulosus is characterized by high intra-specific variability (genotypes G1-G10) and according to the new molecular phylogeny of the genus Echinococcus, the E. granulosus complex has been divided into E. granulosus sensu stricto (G1-G3), E.
