  • Title: A fast electrophoretic isoenzyme technique for the identification of invasive and non-invasive Entamoeba histolytica and "E. histolytica-like" organisms.
    Author: Moss DM, Mathews HM.
    Journal: J Protozool; 1987 Aug; 34(3):253-5. PubMed ID: 2888886.
    Abstract:
    Cellulose acetate electrophoresis (CAE) was used to separate glucosephosphate isomerase, hexokinase, malic enzyme, and phosphoglucomutase extracted from invasive and non-invasive Entamoeba histolytica and "E. histolytica-like" organisms. Each of these morphologically similar organisms possessed a unique CAE isoenzyme profile that can be used as an aid in their identification. The CAE technique used to obtain these isoenzyme profiles is rapid, simple, and economical, and it requires neither specialized training nor elaborate equipment.
