Major Field of Science: | Engineering and Technology | Field Category: | Mechanical Engineering | Keywords: | Diversity;Microsatellite;Trichomonas vaginalis | Issue Date: | Aug-2011 | Source: | Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2011, vol. 105, no. 8, pp. 479-481 | Volume: | 105 | Issue: | 8 | Start page: | 479 | End page: | 481 | Journal: | Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene | Abstract: | The genetic epidemiology of Trichomonas vaginalis is poorly understood at present. The recent release of the organism's genome sequence opens the way to investigation of polymorphic markers allowing strain identification. We here report a preliminary analysis of microsatellite loci in T. vaginalis and show that this approach holds promise for future studies of infection transmission and organism diversity. | ISSN: | 18783503 | DOI: | 10.1016/j.trstmh.2011.05.005 | Type: | Article | Affiliation : | London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine University of London Evagelismos General Hospital of Athens |
