Genetic diversity of Entamoeba Species among Children Under 5 years in the Vhembe District, Limpopo Province, South Africa

2020-12-15

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> Our understanding of the disease caused by the various Entamoeba species and its epidemiology is changing with time, and very little is known about their genetic diversity. Therefore, this study sought to investigate the prevalence and genetic diversity of Entamoeba species among children under 5 years in the Vhembe District, South Africa. <h4>Methods: </h4>: A total of 534 stool samples from...
