Abstract
Denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) was used for the discrimination of three species and one genotype of the protozoan parasite Cryptosporidium: the C. parvum, C. andersoni, C. muris, and C. muris Japanese field mouse genotype. A set of primers specific for the 18S rRNA gene of Cryptosporidium was used in the DGGE; consequently, the four strains showed different banding patterns. This is a potentially convenient and precise method for the discrimination of Cryptosporidium spp.Entities:
