Blastocystis: Pathogen or Passenger?
An Evaluation of 101 Years of Research
The stages of Blastocystis have been known for 101 years. However, many facts are still disputed, e.g. even the question whether it is a true pathogen or a commensal present in sometimes life-threatening diarrheas. The present book evaluates in chapters contributed by renowned researchers the latest findings on:?Landmarks in the discovery of Blastocystis?Epidemiology, transmission and zoonotic potential?Morphology of human and animal Blastocystis isolates?Clinical aspects of Blastocystis infections?Behavioral decision analysis: what makes us sick??Blastocystis-host interactions?Molecular approaches on the systematical position?Genetic polymor…
