Infections by Intestinal Coccidia and Giardia duodenalis [PDF]
Clinics in Laboratory Medicine, 2015 The coccidians Cryptosporidium spp, Cyclospora cayetanensis, and Cystoisospora belli and the flagellate Giardia duodenalis are pathogenic protozoa associated with gastrointestinal manifestations. Diagnosis relies heavily on microscopy, and although ova-and-parasite examinations can detect Giardia and Cystoisospora, Cryptosporidium and Cyclospora often ...

Low risk for transmission of zoonotic Giardia duodenalis from dogs to humans in rural Cambodia
Parasites & Vectors, 2014 Background A number of epidemiological studies have demonstrated Giardia as prevalent in both humans and dogs worldwide and have postulated the occurrence of anthroponotic, zoonotic and animal-specific cycles of transmission, which may be geographically ...

A purified ferredoxin from Giardia duodenalis [PDF]
European Journal of Biochemistry, 1994 A ferredoxin has been purified to homogeneity from the ancient protozoan parasite Giardia duodenalis. As far as we know, this is the first electron transport protein to be characterised from the organism. The ferredoxin exhibits absorption maxima at 296 and 406 nm with molar absorption coefficients of ɛ296= 16650 ± 240 M−1 cm−1 and ɛ406= 13100 ± 370 M ...
