A nested polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay for the diagnosis of human visceral leishmaniasis (VL) due to Leishmania infantum infection was developed using primers selected from the parasite's genomic deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). The assay, which is based on the use of leucocytes separated from blood samples by Ficoll-Paque ( TM) centrifugation, was compared with culture in vitro. Blood...
Forty human strains of Leishmania infantum isolated in 1985-1999 from 17 patients with repeated cutaneous, mucosal or visceral leishmaniasis episodes in Catalonia (Spain) were examined by isoenzyme electrophoresis. Six zymodemes were revealed: MON-1, MON-24, MON-28, MON-29, MON-33 and MON-34. In 2 patients 2 different zymodemes were identified in consecutive episodes.
