摘要
For 23 Ivoirian patients infected by Trypanosoma brucei gambiense, isolation and genetic characterization using PCR and microsatellite primers were performed (in 1996-99) using 2 different isolates (A and 13) from each patient. When using TBDAC 1/2, 7 genotypes were observed, and DNAs A and B for 2 patients were different. This might be the first evidence of the presence of 2 different genotypes of T. b. gambiense group I in the same patient.
