abstract

in this study, we used random amplified polymorphic dna (rapd) for identification of 17 isolates of leishmania from the skin and reticuloendothelial system of humans, animal reservoirs (rodent and dog) and sandflies in various parts of iran in the last decade. fifteen species have been confirmed by isoenzyme characterization by the london school of hygiene and tropical medicine and shiraz university of medical sciences. in this study, strong confirmation has been observed between random amplified polymorphic dna with isoenzyme characterization.

Identification of Leishmania Species Causing Cutaneous Leishmaniasis Using Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA (RAPD-PCR) in Kharve, Iran

Background: Leishmaniasis, especially cutaneous leishmaniasis, is considered an important health problem in many parts of Iran including Kharve, Khorasan Razavi province. Cutaneous leishmaniasis is caused by various species of Leishmania, each having a different secondary host. Thus, identifying the parasites’ specie is of paramount importance for containment strategy planning. The morpho...

Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) fingerprinting of Mycoplasma gallisepticum isolates from chickens

  Ten field isolates of Mycoplasma gallisepticum (MG) from different geographical areas of Iran were analyzed by random amplification of polymorphic DNA (RAPD). RAPD analysis produced reproducible banding patterns on the basis of which various distinct amplification patterns could be detected. MG isolates compared with reference strains (S6 and Mg SS) and vaccine strain (ts-11) and demonstrated...

Molecular Characterization of Iraqi Local Goat Breeds Using Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA Markers

Cashmere is only produced from Maraz (Kurdi) goat breed in Iraqi Kurdistan Region. The objective of this study was to assess the genetic diversity of different Maraz color types, black goat and Shami breeds using random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers. Fourteen primers were used and nine out of them were selected based on their number of bands (NB) and polymorphic characteristics. Thes...
