Abstract:Rodent pinworms, Spironucleus muris and Tritrichomonas muris are the endoparasites that should be monitored and excluded from laboratory animal colonies. Nevertheless, traditional diagnostic methods may not efficiently detect and accurately demonstrate the endoparasite infestation status. In this study, we developed a multiplex PCR assay targeting the rRNA genes to simultaneously detect and differentiate five endoparasites, including Syphacia obvelata, Syphacia muris, Aspiculuris tetraptera, Spironucleus muris… Show more
