Purification of Giardia muris cysts by velocity sedimentation

Purification of Giardia muris cysts by velocity sedimentation

J F Sauch. Appl Environ Microbiol. 1984 Aug.

Abstract

Giardia muris cysts were separated from fecal contaminants in primary isolates by unit gravity velocity sedimentation. Crude isolates obtained by centrifugation over 1.0 M sucrose were overlaid onto a Percoll density gradient, 1.01 to 1.03 g/ml. G. muris cysts were well separated from faster-sedimenting fecal debris and slower-sedimenting Spironucleus muris and bacteria in 1.5 h.
