title: Genotyping of Toxoplasma gondii isolates with 15 microsatellite markers in a single multiplex PCR assay.
abstract: We developed an easy-to-use method for genotyping Toxoplasma gondii isolates in a single multiplex PCR assay with 15 microsatellite markers. This method was validated by testing 26 reference isolates that had been characterized with other sets of markers.
