A Review on Parasitological, Immunological and Molecular Methods for Diagnosis of Human Strongyloidiasis
Strongyloidiasis caused by intestinal nematode Strongyloides stercoralis may leads to hyperinfection syndrome and disseminated infections. If not diagnosed and treated properly, it may even end to the death of patients. Sensitivity of parasitological methods is not good enough and multiple stool sampling over consecutive days is essential to improve the detection rate. The agar plate culture me...
متن کاملMolecular diagnosis of strongyloidiasis in tropical areas: a comparison of conventional and real-time polymerase chain reaction with parasitological methods
This study aimed to evaluate the use of conventional polymerase chain reaction (cPCR) and real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR) in the diagnosis of human strongyloidiasis from stool samples in tropical areas. Stool samples were collected from individuals and were determined to be positive for Strongyloides stercoralis (group I), negative for S. stercoralis (group II) and positive for other enteropa...
متن کاملThe parasitological, immunological and molecular diagnosis of human taeniasis with special emphasis on Taenia solium taeniasis
Human neurocysticercosis, caused by the larval stage of the tapeworm Taenia solium, is an important neurological disorder reported as a major cause of epilepsy. An important risk factor for neurocysticercosis is the presence of human T. solium carriers who, upon open defecation, disseminate tapeworm eggs, which are infective to both humans and pigs. In the latter, infection also results in cyst...
متن کاملA Comparison Study between Parasitological and Molecular Methods for Diagnosis of Acute and Chronic Anthroponotic Cutaneous Leishmaniasis
Introduction: Anthroponotic cutaneous leishmaniasis (ACL) is still a major public health problem in the northeast and central parts of Iran. This study was designed to compare microscopy and cultivation methods with PCR amplification of kinetoplast DNA and ITS1 followed by RFLP analysis for diagnosis of acute and chronic ACL. Methods: In this study, 66 patients with ACL including 24 acute and 4...
متن کاملComparison of the Formalin- Ether and the Katz Kato in The Parasitological Diagnosis of Human Fascioliasis
ABSTRACT Human fascioliasis is an endemic disease in the Guillan province and it has became a public health problem in the port of Anzali. Thousands of people in this area were infected during the two outbreaks in 1987 and 1998. If the mature worm settles in the liver, finding the ova in the stool is the most reliable diagnosis of the infection. Therefore selecting the most sensitive parasito...
