Ultrastructure of Naegleria fowleri enflagellation [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1981 Amoebae of Naegleria fowleri nN68 became elongated flagellated cells 150 to 180 min after subculture to non-nutrient buffer. N. fowleri NF69 did not become elongated or flagellated under these conditions. Electron microscopic examination of N. fowleri confirmed that it is a typical eucaryotic protist with a distinct nuclear envelope and prominent ...

Naegleria fowleriin Well Water [PDF]
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2008 To the Editor: Naegleria fowleri, a protozoon found in hot springs and warm surface water, can cause primary amebic meningoencephalitis in humans. A survey of drinking water supply wells in Arizona determined that wells can be colonized and may be an unrecognized source of this organism that could present a human health risk. N.

Advanced Synthesis &Catalysis, Volume 365, Issue 24, Page 4567-4575, December 19, 2023., 2023 Abstract A three‐step synthesis of anti‐amoebic, ring‐fused mackinazolinones has been developed. A Mannich‐type reaction between quinazolin‐4‐ones and N‐Cbz propanal in the presence of AgOTf afforded quinazolinones (19–94% isolated yield) bearing a newly formed heterocycle with an alkylamine appendage that, upon N‐Cbz deprotection and basification ...

Identification of Naegleria fowleri proteins linked to primary amoebic meningoencephalitis [PDF]
, 2017 Naegleria fowleri (N. fowleri) causes primary amoebic meningoencephalitis, a rapidly fatal disease of the central nervous system. N. fowleri can exist in cyst, flagellate or amoebic forms, depending on environmental conditions.
