Seven isolates of Leishmania from mainland China were characterized on the basis of their isoenzyme profiles for 10 enzymes. Five isolates were from human visceral leishmaniasis patients, and four of these showed isoenzyme patterns similar to the marker strain of Leishmania infantum, while one was similar to L. donovani sensu lato. One isolate was from a presumed reservoir host of human visceral leishmaniasis, the racoon dog Nyctereutes procyanoides, and was isoenzymically indistinguishable from L. infantum. An isolate of L. gerbilli from the great gerbil Rhombomys opimus was readily distinguishable from Old World marker strains and other Chinese leishmanias. This is the first report of the biochemical characterization of Chinese isolates of Leishmania.
基于10种酶的同工酶谱，对来自中国大陆的7株利什曼原虫进行了特征分析。5株分离株来自人类内脏利什曼病患者，其中4株的同工酶模式与婴儿利什曼原虫的标准菌株相似，而1株与杜氏利什曼原虫复合群相似。1株分离株来自人类内脏利什曼病的假定储存宿主貉，其同工酶与婴儿利什曼原虫无法区分。从大沙鼠分离出的沙鼠利什曼原虫菌株很容易与旧世界标准菌株和其他中国利什曼原虫区分开来。这是关于中国利什曼原虫分离株生化特征的首次报道。
