First report of Entamoeba moshkovskii in human stool samples from symptomatic and asymptomatic participants in Kenya [PDF]
Tropical Diseases, Travel Medicine and Vaccines, 2019 Entamoeba moshkovskii is a member of the Entamoeba complex and a colonizer of the human gut. We used nested polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to differentiate Entamoeba species in stool samples that had previously been screened by microscopy.
