persistence of trichinella spiralis muscle larvae in natural decaying mice. | the influence of natural weather conditions on the viability and reproductive capability of trichinella spiralis muscle larvae in mouse corpses exposed to summer and winter conditions in the buenos aires province, argentina, was studied. for this purpose, a total of 49 mouse corpses harbouring muscle larvae of t. spiralis were exposed for a period of 1, 2, 4 and 6 weeks in each of the seasons. control corpses maintained at 8°c were also included. in summer, t. spiralis muscle larvae were recover ... | 2012 | 22281547 |
genetic diversity among isolates of trichinella spiralis from the province of buenos aires, argentina. | random amplified polymorphic dnas, (rapds) are used to study the occurrence of trichinella britovi and t5 among domestic animals in the province of buenos aires, argentina and to assess the genetic diversity among isolates of t. spiralisfrom this area in a number of infected hosts. all the local isolates proved to be t. spiralis. six of the eight primers used indicate that the buenos aires isolates are distinct from each other as they produce a considerable number of polymorphic bands. our overa ... | 2000 | 10953229 |
