After an investigation carried out with samples from several sewage sludges from the town of Pavia (Italy) the AA. report the isolation of two new strains of Entamoeba moshkovskii. The usefulness and reliability of two methods, i.e. growth in hypotonic media and the thermoresistance tests in vitro for the biological typization of this species are analyzed and discussed. Both methods had already proven useful to characterize the Laredo-type strains of E. histolytica too, as reported by other AA.
Résumé
A la suite d’une recherche parasitologique conduite sur différents échantillons d’eau et de boue d’égouts de la ville de Pavie (Italie) a été possible l’isolement de deux nouvelles souches d’Entamoeba moshkovskii. La caractérisation morpho-biologique des souches a été effectuée à l’aide de deux méthodes, tels que la culture en milieux hypotoniques et le test de thermorésistance in vitro, qui d’après les travaux d’autres AA. s’étaient montrés déjà de bons marqueurs, même pour la différenciation entre E. histolytica et les souches Laredo « thermoadaptables ».
