Abstract:
A total of 13 Spanish Trichinella isolates were characterised by DNA analysis. Genomic DNA cross-hybridisation tests revealed two distinct groups that exhibited weak cross-reactions. Further diagnostic subdivision was attempted according to restriction-fragment polymorphism using a cloned T. spiralis DNA repetitive fragment as a probe, but no major difference between the two Trichinella groups was observed.
