Acanthamoeba spp. cysts storage in filter paper.

Claiton José Pens1, Marilise Brittes Rott.   

Abstract

A new method of storage of the free-living amoeba, Acanthamoeba, is described. For this purpose, strips of filter paper were impregnated with cysts of amoebas cultivated axenically and transferred into a cryotube. The strips were dehydrated at 30 degrees C for 24 h and after storage at room temperature. The amoeba viability has been evaluated and the cysts remain viable and pure for at least 1 year. Then, our method has been efficient for the storage of cysts during the evaluated period.
