a case of ciliate protozoa colpoda spp. (ciliata: colpodidae) detected in human urine
نویسندگان
چکیده
in the urine of a patient with chronic prostatitis, renal microlithiasis and acute cystitis we found the ciliate protozoa colpoda spp . , both in vegetative and cystic form. the entry point was most likely the urinary tract. keeping in mind that only four more cases of colpoda spp . existent in human urine have already been described, and that in the case of our patient the ciliate was present at repeated examinations of his urine, we presumed that it is not only a spurious infection of the urogenital tract. it still remains to be analyzed whether this ciliate belongs to a species of colpoda adapted to parasitism in homeothermae and whether it can be pathogenic for humans.

متن کاملFine Structure of Division in Ciliate Protozoa
The mitotic, micronuclear division of the heterotrichous genus Blepharisma has been studied by electron microscopy. Dividing ciliates were selected from clone-derived mass cultures and fixed for electron microscopy by exposure to the vapor of 2% osmium tetroxide; individual Blepharisma were encapsulated and sectioned. Distinctive features of the mitosis are the presence of an intact nuclear env...

Six rumen-fistulated and defaunated wethers were fed twice daily a pelleted diet of barley and dehydrated lucern at a rate of 50 g dry matter/kg body weight °-!5. Two months later, the sheep were divided into three equal groups. Each group was then inoculated in the rumen with one of the following three genera of protozoa : Polyplastron multivesiculatum (P), Entodinium sp. (E), or lsotricha pro...
متن کاملThe Role of Ciliate Protozoa in the Rumen
First described in 1843, Rumen protozoa with their striking appearance were assumed to be important for the welfare of their host. However, despite contributing up to 50% of the bio-mass in the rumen, the role of protozoa in rumen microbial ecosystem remains unclear. Phylogenetic analysis of 18S rDNA libraries generated from the rumen of cattle, sheep, and goats has revealed an unexpected diver...
