1. By using affinity chromatography and chromatofocusing analysis at least two major glutathione transferases, named GST II and GST III can be isolated from Gammarus italicus. 2. GST II has an isoelectric point at pH 5.0 and is composed of two subunits with an apparent molecular mass of 28 KDa. 3. GST III which has an isoelectric point at pH 4.6 was found to be an heterodimer of 27 KDa and 28 KDa. 4. The 28 KDa subunit cross-reacted in immunoblotting analysis with antisera raised against pi class GST, whereas none of the antisera raised against alpha, mu and pi class GSTs cross-reacted with the 27 KDa subunit.

During studies on helminth parasites of brown trout (Salmo trutta L.) from the river Tirino (L'Aquila - Italy), the intermediate hosts of Cyathocephalus truncatus (Pallas, 1781) and Dentitruncus truttae Sinzar, 1955 have been searched for. A total of 15,444 amphipoda belonging to the following 3 species: Echinogammarus roco Karman, 1973, Echinogammarus tibaldii Pinkster and Stock, 1970, and Gammarus italicus Goedmakers and Pinkster, 1977, have been dissected.
