  • Title: Isolation of Encephalitozoon cuniculi using primary tissue culture techniques from a rabbit in a colony showing encephalitozoonosis.
    Author: Furuya K, Fukui D, Yamaguchi M, Nakaoka Y, Bando G, Kosuge M.
    Journal: J Vet Med Sci; 2001 Feb; 63(2):203-6. PubMed ID: 11258462.
    Abstract:
    Encephalitozoon spores were isolated in a primary tissue culture of the kidneys from an encephalitozoonosis-suspected rabbit in a municipal zoo in Hokkaido. The isolated spores were morphologically characteristic of microsporidial ones in chromotrope stain, and proven to be E. cuniculi by a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) with a species-specific primer set and by direct DNA sequencing of the PCR products.
