Protozoa and Helminth Parasites ppt by Dr.Prince.C.PDR.PRINCE C P
PPT prepared by :Dr.Prince.C.P
Associate Professor & HOD , Department of Microbiology,
Mother Theresa Post Graduate & Research Institute of Health Sciences (Government of Puducherry Institution)
Medical Parasitology is the subject which deals with the parasites that infect human being, the diseases caused by them, clinical feature and the response generated by human being against them. It's also concerned with the various methods of their diagnosis, treatment and finally their prevention & control.
An ova or cyst or egg is detected by microscopic evaluation of a stool sample that is used to look for parasites that may infect the lower digestive tract, causing symptoms such as diarrhoea. The parasites and their eggs (ova) are shed from the lower digestive tract into the stool
Stool examination (Microscopic) is performed for the diagnosis of following parasitic infections
1. Protozoa • Entamoeba histolytica • Giardia lamblia • intestinal coccidian parasites (i) Cryptosporidium parvum (ii) Cyclospora (iii) Isospora • Balantidium coli
2. Helminthes • nematodes: (i) Ascaris lumbricoides (ii) Trichuris trichuria
(Iii) hookworm • Ancylostoma duodenale • Nectar americans (iv) Strongyloides stercoralis
Cestodes: (i) Taenia spp • T. Saginata • T.Solium (ii) Hymenolepsis nana (iii) Enterobius vermicularis
Learning objectives
At the end of this unit, the students will be able to know about:
Epidemiological aspects of blood, and tissue sporozoan
Life cycle and pathogenesis of each blood, and tissue sporozoan
Necessary laboratory procedures for the detection and identification of blood, and tissue Sporozoa.
1. Trypanosoma brucei
• Trypanosoma brucei is a parasite in Kingdom
Pro0sta
• Can be divided into two subspecies:
T. brucei qambiense and T. brucei rhodesiense Photo Credit: http://
www.pnas.org/content/100/3/
• Organisms are slender with a wavy membrane, F1.medium.gif
protruding flagellum, and visible nucleus
• Causes disease “African Sleeping Sickness”
• TransmiEed to humans through the Tsetse Fly (only found in
Africa) and infects the blood ~ 70,000 cases per year, larger
epidemics occur
• Symptoms include fever, enlarged spleen, swollen lymph
nodes, joint pains, and more serious problems such as sleep
disorders, coma, and death
• Treatment includes Suramin and Melarsoprol
2. Rubella Virus
• Included in the virus family Togaviridae
• Single‐stranded RNA with a polyhedral capsid,
surrounded by a lipoprotein envelope Photo Credit: http://
www.mayoclinic.com/health/
• Symptoms of Rubella Virus last 2‐3 days medical/IM01794
• Symptoms include slight fever (102 degrees F), inflamed, red
eyes, rash that spreads over the body, headachesThere is no
treatment for Rubella Virus
• Rubella Virus must run its course throughout the body
• Most children are given the vaccine (MMR‐ measles‐mumps‐
rubella) in two doses within their childhood years
– Fewer than 300 cases per year, periodic outbreaks
3. Sarcoptes scabiei
• Kingdom: Animalia Parasi0c
Arthropod
• This microscopic eight legged mite
causes the skin disease Sarcop0c
mange (scabies).
• Symptoms: severe itching especially depts.washington.edu
at night, red blisters, and red
irregular burrow tracks.
• Es0mated 1 million cases in US
annually (old sta0s0cs)
• Highly contagious, can be caught
from physical contact with someone
infected, a domes0cated/wild
animal infected, and fields.
Treatment: Lo0ons and oral
