Microsporidian organisms causing great losses among young blue foxes (alopex lagopus) were isolated and propagated in monolayer cell cultures and examined by transmission- and scanning electron microscopy. The parasite was found to fulfil the criteria set up for the genus Encephalitozoon and the ultrastructural findings indicated that the parasite was morphologically identical to Encephalitozoon cuniculi previously isolated from some other mammalian species. Terminal vesicles on the extruded polar filaments seen on scanning electron micrographs were discussed to be similar formation as described for the microsporidian Nosema michaelis.
在年轻蓝狐（北极狐）中造成巨大损失的微孢子虫生物被分离出来，并在单层细胞培养物中繁殖，然后通过透射电子显微镜和扫描电子显微镜进行检查。发现该寄生虫符合为脑胞内原虫属设定的标准，超微结构研究结果表明，该寄生虫在形态上与先前从其他一些哺乳动物物种中分离出的兔脑胞内原虫相同。扫描电子显微镜照片上看到的挤出极丝上的末端囊泡被认为与微孢子虫米氏微粒子虫所描述的形成相似。
