Standardized RNA extraction protocol for Entamoeba species: advancing molecular diagnostics and amebiasis control

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology
Amebiasis, caused by Entamoeba histolytica, remains a major public health challenge in endemic regions and is often misdiagnosed due to its morphological similarity to the non-pathogenic species E. dispar. The limitations of light microscopy and the high
