Samples from 24 aquaria were incubated at 28, 37, and 45 degrees C for the isolation of Naegleria and Acanthamoeba. Naegleria was the predominant genus (60.9%), whereas Acanthamoeba represented 15.5% of the isolates. No pathogenic N. fowleri was identified, although a high number of strains were closely related to this species. One isolate (Aq/9/1/45D) was compared with an aquarium isolate (PPMFB-6) from Australia. The Belgian isolate was found to be more related to N. fowleri, whereas the Australian isolate was closer to N. gruberi.
从24个水族箱中采集样本,分别在28、37和45摄氏度下培养,以分离耐格里属阿米巴原虫和棘阿米巴属。耐格里属是主要的属(60.9%),而棘阿米巴属占分离株的15.5%。尽管有大量菌株与福氏耐格里阿米巴密切相关,但未鉴定出致病性福氏耐格里阿米巴。将一株分离株(Aq/9/1/45D)与来自澳大利亚的一株水族箱分离株(PPMFB - 6)进行比较。发现比利时分离株与福氏耐格里阿米巴的关系更近,而澳大利亚分离株更接近格氏耐格里阿米巴。
