Blastocystis

2022
Blastocystis is an anaerobic, unicellular protist with a worldwide distribution. In mammalian and avian hosts, molecular studies have allowed the identification of at least 22 distinct ribosomal lineages, termed subtypes (STs), which could be considered separate species.

Chromosomes of Blastocystis hominis

International Journal for Parasitology, 1989
Three stocks of Blastocystis hominis were adapted to monophasic culture in minimal essential medium (MEM) and the chromosomes of these stocks separated by field inversion gel electrophoresis (FIGE). Ten-twelve chromosomes were distinguished in the electrophoretic karyotype of these three stocks over the range 200 kilobase pairs to greater than 1 ...

Endosymbiosis in Blastocystis hominis

Experimental Parasitology, 1976
Abstract Examination of eight strains of axenically grown Blastocystis hominis by Nomarski interference optics revealed the presence in all strains of intracellular bacterialike spheres and rods, which were named alpha. These structures were confirmed by transmission (TEM) and freeze fracture (FEM) electron microscopy.

DNA Barcoding of Blastocystis

Protist, 2006
We have developed a simple method for subtyping the intestinal protistan parasite Blastocystis using an approach equivalent to DNA barcoding in animals. Amplification of a 600 bp region of the small subunit ribosomal RNA gene followed by single primer sequencing of the PCR product provides enough data to assign isolates to specific subtypes ...

Blastocystis in animal handlers

Parasitology Research, 1999
The present study investigated whether people working closely with animals were at higher risk of getting infected with Blastocystis hominis. The prevalence of the parasite was determined in two population groups, i.e., animal handlers and normal healthy individuals who did not work with animals.

Ultrastructure of blastocystis hominis

Zeitschrift f�r Parasitenkunde, 1973
Ultrastructural studies of modified Boeck-Drbohlav egg slant cultured Blastocystis hominis reveal ameba, granular, and vacuolated forms of this organism. The ameba form shows a thick filamentous surface layer, a less conspicuous solid central body than the granular and vacuolated forms and very large mitochondria.

Blastocystis hominis and travelers

Travel Medicine and Infectious Disease, 2005
B. hominis is a unicellular protozoan commonly identified in stool specimens of travelers who have returned from tropical countries. It has a world-wide distribution, and infection is more common in developing countries compared to industrialized nations.

Terminology for Blastocystis subtypes – a consensus

Trends in Parasitology, 2007
Blastocystis is a ubiquitous enteric protistan parasite that has extensive genetic diversity and infects humans and many other animals. Distinct molecular methodologies developed to detect variation and obtain information about transmission patterns and clinical importance have resulted in a confusing array of terminologies for the identification and ...

Infection par Blastocystis

Médecine et Santé Tropicales, 2017
Blastocystis hominis est un organisme commun de la flore intestinale de l’homme, du singe et du cobaye. D’abord considere comme une levure, puis comme une algue, il est actuellement classe parmi les protozoaires. Les enfants sont souvent porteurs de parasites intestinaux, dans les pays en voie de developpement en particulier dans les collectivites et ...
