  • The Intestinal Protozoa
    The Intestinal Protozoa A. Introduction 1. The Phylum Protozoa is classified into four major subdivisions according to the methods of locomotion and reproduction. a. The amoebae (Superclass Sarcodina, Class Rhizopodea move by means of pseudopodia and reproduce exclusively by asexual binary division. b. The flagellates (Superclass Mastigophora, Class Zoomasitgophorea) typically move by long, whiplike flagella and reproduce by binary fission. c. The ciliates (Subphylum Ciliophora, Class Ciliata) are propelled by rows of cilia that beat with a synchronized wavelike motion. d. The sporozoans (Subphylum Sporozoa) lack specialized organelles of motility but have a unique type of life cycle, alternating between sexual and asexual reproductive cycles (alternation of generations). e. Number of species - there are about 45,000 protozoan species; around 8000 are parasitic, and around 25 species are important to humans. 2. Diagnosis - must learn to differentiate between the harmless and the medically important. This is most often based upon the morphology of respective organisms. 3. Transmission - mostly person-to-person, via fecal-oral route; fecally contaminated food or water important (organisms remain viable for around 30 days in cool moist environment with few bacteria; other means of transmission include sexual, insects, animals (zoonoses). B. Structures 1. trophozoite - the motile vegetative stage; multiplies via binary fission; colonizes host. 2. cyst - the inactive, non-motile, infective stage; survives the environment due to the presence of a cyst wall. 3. nuclear structure - important in the identification of organisms and species differentiation. 4. diagnostic features a. size - helpful in identifying organisms; must have calibrated objectives on the microscope in order to measure accurately.

  • Reducing the Risk of Iatrogenic Anemia and Catheter-Related Bloodstream Infections Using Closed Blood Sampling
    WHITE PAPER WHITE Reducing the Risk of Iatrogenic Anemia and Catheter-Related Bloodstream Infections Using Closed Blood Sampling INTRODUCTION In the Intensive Care Unit (ICU), critically ill patients are more numerous and severely ill than ever before.1 To effectively care for these patients, clinicians rely on physiologic monitoring of blood-flow, oxygen transport, coagulation, metabolism, and organ function. This type of monitoring has made the collection of blood for testing an essential part of daily management of the critically ill patient, yet it is widely recognized that excessive phlebotomy has a deleterious effect on patient health. The result is a clinical paradox in which diligent care may contribute to iatrogenic anemia. RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH CONVENTIONAL DIAGNOSTIC BLOOD SAMPLING Iatrogenic Anemia The process of obtaining a blood sample from an indwelling central venous or arterial Use of blood sampling techniques that rely catheter requires a volume of diluted blood on discarding a volume of blood for each (2–10 mL) to be discarded or “cleared” from the catheter before a sample can be taken.2,3 sample may contribute to iatrogenic anemia, Studies have shown that patients with central which remains a prevalent issue affecting venous or arterial catheters have more blood sampling than ICU patients who don’t have the vast majority of patients in the ICU. these catheters and the total blood volume drawn from patients with arterial catheters is 44% higher than patients without arterial catheters (See Table 1).4,5 It has also been

The subject of amoebic dysentery wa,s chosen due to the interest aroused from the previous epidemic, which started in Chicago la,st summer (1933). This disea,se has previously been considered as a tropical disease, B.nd was rarely seen and recognized in the temperate zone. Except in indl vidu8,ls who had been in the tropics previously. In reviewing the literature, I find that amoebio dysentery may be seen in any part of the world, and from surveys made, the incidence is five in every hun- dred which harbor the Entamoeba histolytlca, it being the only pathogeniC amoeba of the human gastro-intes­ tinal tract.

    MODULE Entamoeba Histolytica and Other Rhizophodia Microbiology 38 Notes ENTAMOEBA HISTOLYTICA AND OTHER RHIZOPHODIA 38.1 INTRODUCTION Amoebae can be pathogenic called Entamoeba histolytica and non pathogenic called Entamoeba coli (large intestines), Entamoeba gingivalis (oral cavity). These parasites are motile with pseudopodia. The pseudopodia are cytoplasmic processes which are thrown out. OBJECTIVES After reading this lesson you will be able to: z describe morphology, its life cycle, pathogenecity of Entameba Histolytica, other amoebae and free living amoeba z differentiate between amoebic and Bacillary dysentery z differentiate between Entamoeba Histolytica and Entamoeba Coli z demonstrate Laboratory diagnosis of Entameba 38.2 ENTAMOEBA HISTOLYTICA It belongs to the class Rhizopoda and family Entamoebidae. It is the causative agent of amoebiasis. Amoebiasis can be intestinal and extra intestinal like amoebic hepatitis, amoebic liver abscess. 38.3 MORPHOLOGY The Entamoeba is seen in three stages 344 MICROBIOLOGY Entamoeba Histolytica and Other Rhizophodia MODULE (a) Trophozoite: The trophozoite is 18-40 µm in size. The trophozoite is Microbiology actively motile. The cytoplasm is demarcated into endoplasm and ectoplasm. Ingested food particles and red blood cells are seen in the cytoplasm No bacteria are seen in the cytoplasm. The nucleus is 6-15 µm and has a central rounded karyosome. Nuclear membrane has chromatin granules and spoke like radial arrangement of chromatin fibrils. Notes Fig. 38.1 (b) Precyst: Smaller in size. 10-20 µm in diameter. It is round to oval in shape with blunt pseudopodium. The nuclei is similar to the trophozoite. (c) Cyst: These are round 10-15 µm in diameter. It is surrounded by a refractile membrane called as the cyst wall.

    Autonomous University of San Luis Potosí Faculty of Chemical Sciences Laboratory of General Microbiology Searching for intestinal parasites in vegetables Members: Canela Costilla Aaron Jared Gómez Hernández Christiane Lucille Castillo Guevara Diana Zuzim Teacher: Juana Tovar Oviedo Teacher: Rosa Elvia Noyola Medina Days: Tuesday-Thrusday Schedule: 08:00-09:00 hrs Abril 5th of 2017 Objective To perform the search of parasitic forms of protozoa and intestinal helminths in vegetables sold in home samples, using the saline centrifugation technique, microscopic observation with 10X and 40X objective, using lugol as a contrast dye Introduction Protozoans are unicellular microorganisms that lack a cell wall. They usually lack color and are mobile. They are distinguished from prokaryotes by their larger size, algae lacking chloroplast and chlorophyll, yeasts and fungi by being mobile and mucosal fungi because of their inability to form fruiting bodies Because of their appreciable content of ascorbic acid, carotene and dietary fiber, vegetables are widely recommended as part of the daily diet. Celery, lettuce, cabbage, brussels sprouts and other vegetables that are generally eaten raw have been associated with outbreaks of diarrhea and even listeriosis. In addition, contamination with parasitic eggs such as Ascaris lumbricoides, Trichocephalus trichiurus, Entamoeba histolytica cysts, Giardia intestinalis and viruses such as hepatitis A has been found in this type of plant. Collection and preservation of vegetables Vegetables should The sample is allowed Vegetables are be fresh at the time to soak in saline solution chopped and cut of sampling 0.85% for 24 hours into pieces They are placed in The contents are We weigh 40g of the glass glasses and 400ml shaken and left to sample in a granataria of saline solution is stand for 24 hours scale added 0.9% Process 9.

  • The Detection and Differentiation of Entamoeba Histolytica and Entamoeba Dispar from Diarrheic Stool Samples by Real-Time PCR, ELISA and Trichrome Staining Method
    The detection and differentiation of Entamoeba histolytica and Entamoeba dispar from diarrheic stool samples by real-time PCR, ELISA and Trichrome staining method Yakut Akyön1, Ahmet Pınar1, Alpaslan Alp1, Fadile Zeyrek2, Burçin Şener1, Sibel Ergüven1 1Hacettepe University, Medical Faculty, Department of Medical Microbiology, Ankara, 2Harran University, Medical Faculty, Department of Medical Microbiology, Şanlıurfa, Turkey. Introduction: Entamoeba histolytica is an intestinal protozoan parasite that causes invasive amoebiasis in 40–50 million people, resulting in 40 000–100 000 deaths worldwide each year (1). The highest prevalence of Entamoeba histolytica infection is found in countries in subtropical and tropical regions with low hygienic standards, and in countries with high population density. E. histolytica, E. dispar and E. moshkovskii are morphologically identical but are different biochemically and genetically. Although a previous study showed E. moshkovskii to be a non-pathogenic parasite, intestinal symptoms including diarrhea and other gastrointestinal disorders in individuals infected with this species have been reported (2). Also mild gastrointestinal symtoms has been reported in E. dispar infected patients, but the symptoms are self-limited. The prevalence of E. dispar is about ten times higher than E. histolytica (3). Differential diagnosis of E. histolytica, E. dispar and, E. moshkovskii which are three morphologically identical species of Entamoeba genus, is essential both for treatment decision and public health knowledge. Although the distinction between these three species is of great importance, the methods developed for this purpose either are very time-consuming or not sensitive and specific enough. In this study, the efficiency of quantitative real-time PCR method in detection of E.
