Abstract

Biochemical methods were investigated for use in taxonomic studies on Babesia. The techniques used were variation in the mobility of parasite enzymes on starch gels after electrophoresis and the measurement of the buoyant density of the DNA of the parasites. The study was carried out on four rodent species of Babesia (B. microti, B. rodhaini, B. hylomysci and B. muratovi) as well as two human isolates of Babesia believed to be of rodent origin. In addition a related piroplasm of rodents, Anthemosoma garnhami, was also investigated. The results indicate that biochemical methods would be of value in taxonomic studies on Babesia.

摘要

研究了生化方法在巴贝斯虫分类学研究中的应用。所采用的技术包括寄生虫酶在淀粉凝胶上电泳后迁移率的变化以及寄生虫DNA浮力密度的测定。该研究对四种啮齿类巴贝斯虫（微小巴贝斯虫、罗得西亚巴贝斯虫、姬鼠巴贝斯虫和穆拉托夫巴贝斯虫）以及两株被认为源自啮齿动物的人类巴贝斯虫分离株进行了研究。此外，还对一种相关的啮齿类梨形虫——加氏花蜱梨浆虫进行了研究。结果表明，生化方法在巴贝斯虫的分类学研究中具有重要价值。
