Abstract:  AIM:To study the allelic zymogram of periodic B.malayi from Zhejiang Province. METHODS:180 adult worms(60,♀120),32 000 microfilaria and 1 500 infective larvae of periodic B.malayi were examined for the isoenzymes of 14 enzymes by horizontal starch gel electrophoresis with 14 different isomyme.RESULTS:Twenty seven allelic loci were found in three developing stages of B. malayi , most of them were homozygotes,however, two of them(MPI,MDH)were heterozygotes(7.4%).17,19 and 9 loci were presented in adult worms,microfilariae and infective larvae, respectively.At the same time, the allelic zymogram of B.malayi from Guizhou Province was also examined.CONCLUSION:The allelic zymogram of periodic B. malayi from Zhejiang Province was similar to that of periodic B. malayi from Guizhou Province but passaged in the laboratory.

Key words: Periodic Brugia malayi, allelic zymogram, horizontal starch gel elctrophoresis
