Frequency and molecular characterisation of Entamoeba histolytica, Entamoeba dispar, Entamoeba moshkovskii, and Entamoeba hartmanni in the context of water scarcity in northeastern Brazil [PDF]

Memórias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2016
This study aimed to estimate the frequency, associated factors, and molecular characterisation of Entamoeba histolytica, Entamoeba dispar, Entamoeba moshkovskii, andEntamoeba hartmanni infections. We performed a survey (n = 213 subjects) to obtain parasitological, sanitation, and sociodemographic data.

Entamoeba histolytica and Entamoeba dispar Infection in Children in Bangladesh [PDF]

Journal of Infectious Diseases, 1997
The prevalence of infection by the invasive parasite Entamoeba histolytica and the noninvasive parasite Entamoeba dispar was determined in 2000 children in Bangladesh. Antigen detection identified more cases of E. histolytica-E. dispar infection than did culture or microscopy. Microscopic identification of E. histolytica-E.

Apparent lack of spill-over of parasites from an invasive anuran: PCR detects Entamoeba in cane toads (Rhinella marina) but not in sympatric Australian native frogs

International Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife, 2020
The recent detection of a novel amoebozoan parasite (Entamoeba sp. CT1) killing invasive cane toads (Rhinella marina) in tropical Australia raises concerns of potential spill-over into native anuran populations.
