Abstract | Giardia muris cysts were separated from fecal contaminants in primary isolates using unit gravity velocity sedimentation. Crude isolates were overlayed onto a Percoll density gradient, 1.01 g/cu cm to 1.03 g/cu cm. Giardia muris cysts were well separated from faster-sedimenting fecal debris and slower-sedimenting Spironucleus muris and bacteria in 1.5 hours. |
