Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Blastocystis hominis is a common intestinal eukaryotic organism that infects both humans and animals. Although its pathogenicity remains debated, it has been associated with diarrhoea and gastroenteritis. This study aimed to determine its prevalence and characterize its genetic subtypes (STs) in symptomatic patients presenting with gastrointestinal complaints. METHODS: DNA was extracted from 279 stool...
