Rapid Diagnosis of Intestinal Parasitic Protozoa, with a Focus on Entamoeba histolytica
Interdisciplinary Perspectives on Infectious Diseases, Volume 2009, Issue 1, 2009., 2009 Entamoeba histolytica is an invasive intestinal pathogenic parasitic protozoan that causes amebiasis. It must be distinguished from Entamoeba dispar and E. moshkovskii, nonpathogenic commensal parasites of the human gut lumen that are morphologically identical to E. histolytica. Detection of specific E.
