The present study on intestinal parasites from the Kathmandu area of Nepal found that in subjectively healthy children (HC) and adults (HA) the total parasite load was 28.1% and 38.8%, respectively, whereas children (ADC) and adults (ADA) with abdominal discomfort had a load of 62.7% and ...

silvaticum are found in orangutans (Pongo pygmaeus) of Borneo [5]. The interest in primate malarias escalated with the discovery of the simian malaria P. knowlesi infecting humans in Southeast Asia [6, 7] and the discovery of novel Plasmodium species in non-human primates [8,9,10,11,12...

The present study is the first to demonstrate that Blastocystis can be found in bivalve mollusks. It was also possible because different methods of dyeing of smears from pellets of the hemolymph, gills and gastrointestinal homogenates were used. Interestingly, none of parasite species detected in A...
