Rediscovery of the Testate Amoeba Genus Penardeugenia (Thaumatomonadida, Imbricatea)

open access: closedProtist, 2017
The genus Penardeugenia DEFLANDRE 1958 accommodates a single species which was described as Pamphagus bathybioticus PENARD 1904. Although this species seems to be well characterized in its description, it has never been recorded again. Despite its possession of silica scales, it was assigned to the scale-lacking Chlamydophryidae (Thecofilosea, Cercozoa)

A reevaluation of the amoeba genus Vahlkampfia based on SSUrDNA sequences

open access: closedEuropean Journal of Protistology, 1999
Summary The amoebae of the genus Vahlkampfia share the two negative morphological characters which define the genus (no flagellate stage; no pores in the cysts) but, otherwise, are phenotypically diverse. The aim of this investigation was to test the monophyly of the genus and to investigate further the phylogeny of the family Vahlkampfiidae.

A genetic approach to species criteria in the amoeba genus Naegleria using allozyme electrophoresis

open access: closedInternational Journal for Parasitology, 1989
The present study employs allozyme electrophoresis to characterize and inter-relate 61 isolates of Naegleria. Diploidy was confirmed, with heterozygotes observed at 29 of the 33 loci established and in all but two isolates. With a single exception, isolates clustered at two levels of similarity, either below 21% or above 52%.

Regeneration of test in testate amoebae of the genus Arcella (Tubulinea, Arcellinida)

European Journal of Protistology, 2016
Although the presence of test is the most fundamental synapomorphy of arcellinid lobose amoebae, the significance of tests in maintenance of the biological functions of these organisms is still largely unclear. This paper demonstrates the effect of the artificial test removal on the behaviour, ultrastructure and reproduction of the testate lobose ...

[Determination of cytoplasmic glycogen in 4 strains of amoeba of the genus Entamoeba].

open access: closedArchivos de investigacion medica, 1991
The purpose of this work was made to determine the cytoplasmic glycogen concentration in trophozoites from four different strains of Entamoeba genus. We used IP-1 and PZ from E. invadens; HM-2 and HK-9 from E. histolytica strains, axenically cultured in TP-S-1 medium. The growth of different strains was determined each 24 hours during 10-days, with the

Amoebas from the genus Acanthamoeba and their pathogenic properties

open access: closedAnnals of parasitology, 2019
Amoebas from the genus Acanthamoeba are cosmopolitan organisms, which can exist as free-living organisms and as parasites within host tissue. Acanthamoeba infection present a serious risk to human health and are characterized by high mortality, especially in immunocompromised individuals.

[Isolation and identification of an amoeba of the genus Naegleria].

open access: closedZhongguo ji sheng chong xue yu ji sheng chong bing za zhi = Chinese journal of parasitology & parasitic diseases, 1989
One pathogenic free-living amoeba, strain W042302 (Fig. 1.), was first isolated from the cooling water of a power plant in Shanghai, in April, 1986. It could result in the deaths of mice, and recovered from the brain tissue of the dead mice. This pathogenic free living amoeba could be induced into trophozoite with two flagellae (Fig. 2.).
