Differentiation of prevalent parasite from artifacts in parasitology laboratory
One of the common problems in the medical parasitology laboratory is the differentiation of parasites from other elements in the stool and body fluids so-called "artifacts". Artifacts generally referred to living or abiotic agents that embedded in the clinical sample and may misleading the lab because of their similarity to parasitic organisms. Artifacts are an integral part of the diagnosis pr...
متن کاملScale-up of Multidrug-Resistant Tuberculosis Laboratory Services, Peru
Over the past 10 years, the Peruvian National Tuberculosis (TB) Program, the National Reference Laboratory (NRL), Socios en Salud, and US partners have worked to strengthen the national TB laboratory network to support treatment of multidrug-resistant TB. We review key lessons of this experience. The preparation phase involved establishing criteria for drug susceptibility testing (DST), selecti...
متن کاملFine-scale analysis of parasite resistance genes in the red flour beetle, Tribolium castaneum.
Parasite infection impacts population dynamics through effects on fitness and fecundity of the individual host. In addition to the known roles of environmental factors, host susceptibility to parasites has a genetic basis that has not been well characterized. We previously mapped quantitative trait loci (QTL) for susceptibility to rat tapeworm (Hymenolepis diminuta) infection in Tribolium casta...
متن کاملRED CELLS Contribution of parasite proteins to altered mechanical properties of malaria-infected red blood cells
Red blood cells (RBCs) parasitized by Plasmodium falciparum are rigid and poorly deformable and show abnormal circulatory behavior. During parasite development, knob-associated histidinerich protein (KAHRP) and P falciparum erythrocyte membrane protein 3 (PfEMP3) are exported from the parasite and interact with the RBC membrane skeleton. Using micropipette aspiration, the membrane shear elastic...
متن کاملFitness cost and impaired survival in penicillin-resistant Streptococcus gordonii isolates selected in the laboratory.
Cycling of Streptococcus gordonii (115 times) with penicillin resulted in a MIC increase of more than 100-fold, from 0.008 to 2 microg/ml. The 2-microg/ml MIC maximum was already reached after 36 passages but resulted in impaired fitness. Although the MIC did not increase further, fitness was partially recovered during the 79 additional cycles.
