Predominio del subconjunto AII de Giardia duodenalis en niños pequeños de Salvador, Bahía, Brasil [PDF]
Introduction. Giardia duodenalis is an intestinal protozoan with a high prevalence in children of developing countries. Molecular studies revealed a great genetic diversity of G. duodenalis, with assemblages A and B found mainly in humans.

Quinacrine-resistantGiardia duodenalis
SUMMARYQuinacrine resistance has been induced in 3Giardia duodenalislaboratory stocks and 4 lines resistant to other drugs. The quinacrine-resistant lines were maintained in normally lethal levels of 5 µM quinacrine and some lines are viable in 20 µM levels of the drug.

Giardia duodenalis: Exposure to metronidazole inhibits competitive interactions between isolates of the parasite in vitro [PDF]
The competitive interactions of genetically distinct isolates of Giardia duodenalis with different growth rates were studied in vitro. Electrophoretic analysis of mixed cultures showed that competition between 2 cloned isolates occurs under normal in ...

Sheep may not be an important zoonotic reservoir for Cryptosporidium and Giardia parasites [PDF]
Little is known of the prevalence of Cryptosporidium and Giardia parasites in sheep and the genotypes that they harbor, although potentially sheep may contribute significantly to contamination of watersheds.

Epidemiology of parasitic protozoan infections in Soay sheep (Ovis aries L.) on St Kilda [PDF]
The feral Soay sheep (Ovis aries L.) population on Hirta, St Kilda, is host to a diverse component parasite community, but previous parasitological studies of the population have only focussed on the metazoan species.

Giardia duodenalis cysts of genotype a recovered from clams in the Chesapeake Bay subestuary, Rhode River [PDF]
Filter-feeding molluscan shellfish can concentrate zoonotic and anthroponotic waterborne pathogens. Cysts of Giardia sp. were detected by immunofluorescent antibodies in tissues of the clams Macoma balthica and M. mitchelli from Rhode River, a Chesapeake

Characterization of Giardia isolates using a non-radiolabeled DNA probe, and correlation with the results of isoenzyme analysis [PDF]
Forty-seven isolates, identified morphologically as Giardia duodenalis, were compared by restriction endonuclease analysis of DNA with hybridization to a non-radiolabeled probe. Seven schizodemes were distinguished, compared to 15 zymodemes identified by

Comparative proteomics of Giardia duodenalis from humans and cattle [PDF]
Giardia duodenalis is a gastrointestinal parasite capable of infecting humans as well domesticated animals, for example cattle. There are seven distinct genetic groups, termed assemblages A-G, with assemblages A and B able to infect humans and assemblage

DNA typing of the human small intestinal protozoan parasite Giardia lamblia [PDF]
PhDAt present there is no satisfactory means of typing strains of Giardia lamblia which can explain the broad range of clinical symptoms seen in giardiasis or which can identify genotypes in epidemiological studies.
