[Hydrolytic activity of Trichomonas vaginalis Donné strains].
The hydrolytic activity of Trichomonas vaginalis Donné strains was investigated using API ZYM test (bioMérieux). Among 19 determined hydrolases were found alkaline and acid phosphatases; also in several strains N-acetyl-beta-glucosaminidase and a-glucosidase were demonstrated. The API ZYM test may be used for characterization of enzymatic activity of T. vaginalis strains, but adequate medium is necessary.
