 | It is possible to identify Leishmania isolates by cellulose acetate electrophoresis (CAE) of up to 29 enzyme activities. Certain of these enzymes are polymorphic within a subspecies and therefore of limited value for identification; others are monomorphic and have taxonomic significance. Once large numbers of isolates from various geographical areas have been characterized and monomorphic enzymes identified, a simple, rapid, accurate field type identification test can be devised. As the ... |

| Certain WRAIR isolates have been characterized for up to 29 enzymes by cellulose acetate electrophoresis (CAE) and were identified as follows: 6 as Leishmania braziliensis braziliensis; 31 as L. b. panamensis,; 3 as L. chagasi; 3 as L. mexicana mexicana; 1 as L. m. aristedesi; 6 as diffuse cutaneous leishmaniasis; 1 as L. donovani; 1 as L. m. pifanoi; 6 as not Leishmania; 4 unknown. Allozyme polymorphism was noted among ... |
