  1. 1. Characterization of encystation in Giardia intestinalis

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för cell- och molekylärbiologi; Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Författare :Johanna Schwarz; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Giardia intestinalis; parasite; encystation; transcription factors;

    Sammanfattning : Giardia intestinalis is a protozoan parasite causing the diarrheal disease called giardiasis that infects millions of people worldwide each year. The life cycle of Giardia intestinalis is characterized by two stages; the sturdy, infectious cyst and the vegetative, motile trophozoite. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Comparison of three methods for detection of Giardia in dogs and cats

    Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk cellbiologi

    Författare :Tilda Ekvall; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Canine; feline; ELISA; SNAP test; immunofluorescence.;

    Sammanfattning : Giardia is a parasite that causes disease in both humans and animals all around the world. Approximately 200 million people are infected each year. The parasite is spread mainly through contact with contaminated feces but can also be spread through food and water contaminated with infectious cysts. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Detection of Entamoeba histolytica using colorimetric loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP)

    Uppsats för yrkesexamina på grundnivå, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk cellbiologi

    Nyckelord :Amoebic dysentery; amoebiasis; real-time PCR; phenol red; Giardia lamblia;

    Sammanfattning : Amoebic dysenteri is a problem in developing countries and is caused by Entamoeba histolytica (E. histolytica) with symptoms such as diarrhea, vomiting and in worse case extra intestinal manifestation. Currently there are difficulties to diagnose E. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Molecular studies of metronidazole resistance development in Giardia intestinalis

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för cell- och molekylärbiologi; Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Författare :Christopher Collins; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Giardia intestinalis; metronidazole;

    Sammanfattning : Giardia intestinalis is a two-staged flagellated protozoan parasite which infects the lumen of the small intestine causing the gastrointestinal disease called giardiasis. This disease infects millions of people per year, commonly caused by inadequate water treatment and proximity to livestock. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Characterization of Giardia intestinalis PAMPs and localization of Giardia’s secretome proteins during infection

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk biokemi och mikrobiologi

    Författare :Rafael Marques; [2021]
    Nyckelord :Excretory-secretory products ESP ; Variable surface proteins VSPs ; High cysteine membrane proteins HCMPs ; Tenascins; Pathogen-associated molecular patterns PAMPs ; Host-parasite interactions;

    Sammanfattning : Giardia intestinalis is a unicellular protozoan parasite responsible for 280 million gastrointestinal infections every year. When colonizing its host, Giardia interacts closely with the small intestine epithelium by attaching to enterocytes and releasing multiple proteins to the extracellular environment. LÄS MER
