Abstract:
The parasites causing a Palestinian case of infantile visceral leishmaniasis (IVL) and those from four dogs from the Jenin District were identified serologically, biochemically and molecular biologically as Leishmania infantum , showing dogs act as a reservoir. The strain from the human case was distinct because of its unique 200‐bp kDNA‐polymerase chain reaction (PCR) component in its restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) profile after digestion with the endonuclease Rsa I, and by the electrophoretic mobility of its malate dehydrogenase (MDH 140 ), designating it the reference strain of a new zymodeme of L. infantum , MON‐281.
