(a) Analysis of PCR products (eye tissue of infected animals) by 1.4% agarose gel electrophoresis. Lanes 1–5: days 5 to 92 PI of Mongolian gerbils; lanes 6–10: days 5 to 92 PI of Wistar rats; lane 11: DNA of Toxocara cati adult worm as positive control; lane 12: negative control; lane M: 100–1500 bp DNA size marker. (b) DNA amplification of vitreous fluid samples of infected animals by PCR on 1.4% agarose gel. Lanes 1–5: days 5 to 92 PI of Mongolian gerbils; lanes 6–10: days 5 to 92 PI of Wistar rats; lane 11: DNA of Toxocara cati adult worm as positive control; lane M: 100–1500 bp DNA size marker.
