Amoebae of the genus Acanthamoeba – pathological agents in humans [PDF]
Postępy Mikrobiologii - Advancements of Microbiology, 2017 Abstract Free living, cosmopolitan amoebae of the genus Acanthamoeba present a serious risk to human health. As facultative human parasites, these amoebae may cause health and life-threatening diseases, such as Acanthamoeba keratitis (AK), granulomatous amoebic encephalitis (GAE) and cutaneous acanthamebiasis.
