C Multiplex species specific PCR result, 1- Positive control showing C. axonis (upper 597 bp band) and C. australis (lower 498 bp band), 2- faecal sample from L. gracilenta (positive for both C. axonis and C. australis) and 3- negative (water) control. Samples (5 μl) were run on 2% agarose gel, stained with Gel Red (Biotium, Australia) with Hyperladder II (Bioline, Australia) DNA ladder.
