The paper shows a high infection of some species of nonhuman primates with blastocysts. Lower rates of infection with this pathogen were observed in younger animals. The blastocysts isolated from Macaca mulatta were microscopically analyzed. The findings indicate a great morphological similarity between the blastocysts of primates and those of man (Blastocystis hominis).
该论文显示某些非人灵长类动物物种感染囊胚的比例很高。在较年轻的动物中观察到这种病原体的感染率较低。对从恒河猴分离出的囊胚进行了显微镜分析。研究结果表明灵长类动物的囊胚与人类囊胚(人芽囊原虫)在形态上有很大的相似性。
