In vitro excystation of cysts microscopically identified Chilomastix mesnili and Retortamonas sp. isolated from Japanese macaques small Indian mongooses could be induced using an established protocol for Giardia intestinalis subsequently by culturing with H2S-rich Robinson's medium supplemented Desulfovibrio desulfuricans. Excystation usually began 2 h after incubation in medium. DNA was excysted flagellates 4 or cultured flagellates. Phylogenetic analysis based on their 18S rRNA genes...
