High-throughput sequencing to explore the extrachromosomal plasmid rDNA of Naegleria fowleri AY27 genotype II: A human brain-eating Amoeba

2024-01-31

Abstract excerpt

Naegleria fowleri is the only known Naegleria spp. that cause acute, fulminant, and rapidly fatal infection in the central nervous system of humans called primary amebic meningoencephalitis (PAM). We report a 28 years-old suspected PAM patient hospitalized in Karachi, Pakistan, with no earlier memoire of recreational activities but daily ritual ablution. Wet film observation of CSF showed amoebic trophozoites and...
