Molecular differentiation by PCR of the <i>Entamoeba dispar/histolytica/moshkovskii</i> complex in the population of Coyaima, Tolima, Colombia
2025-12-17
Abstract excerpt
The Entamoeba histolytica/dispar/moshkovskii complex comprises morphologically indistinguishable species, making accurate diagnosis difficult and leading to overestimations in amebiasis prevalence. This study aimed to establish a sensitive and specific molecular method to differentiate these species in human fecal samples from Coyaima, Tolima, Colombia. A polymerase chain reaction (PCR) targeting the small subuni...
