Aim of the test: diagnosis of infection spread by the above pathogens in case of gastrointestinal symptoms.
BACKGROUND: Entamoeba histolytica is a protozoan infection of animal origin, typically found in developing countries, spread by the faecal-oral route, manifesting in the colon, the protozoan produces various toxins that irritate the intestinal tract causing bloody diarrhoeal symptoms. Giardia lamblia is also an intestinal protozoan. Its cysts are spread through contaminated water and food, typically in areas with public health problems. The parasite attaches to the jejeum wall with suction cups, causing diarrhoea. Cryptosporidium parvum is an animal-borne infection, also a protozoan pathogen. Symptoms include diarrhoea.
