Entamoeba histolytica is a parasitic protozoan that can affect the digestive tract and sometimes other tissues. It generally involves tropical underdeveloped areas with inadequate sanitation & hygiene especially children <5 years of age. Communication is due to polluted water & food, particularly through faeces-contaminated soil, fertilisers & water.

METHODOLOGY

The method used is a Polymerization chain reaction

Procedures of diagnosis have been enhanced in recent years, but a rapid, point-of-care test would be a more relevant technology for usage in the expanding world. Newly, real-time PCR has been verified to be the most susceptible test for the detection of E. histolytica in stool corresponding to the sensitivities of the conventional nested PCR and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay

Sample

The sample used is a stool.

Intentional Use

Entamoeba Ag Rapid Test chromatographic immunoassay is a technique for the estimation of Entamoeba histolytica antigens in human stool specimens.

Storage

The kit can be reserved at temperatures between 2°C and 30°C (it can be accumulated in a refrigerator). The cessation date is published on the package.

Why Do I Need this Test?

You may have to take this test if you have signs of amebiasis. Amebiasis occurs when the parasite E. histolytica reaches your digestive system. That may occur after you eat food or drink water polluted with the parasite or place anything in your mouth that has been infected.

In most patients, this parasite can be based on examining a stool sample under a microscope. If you possess signs of amebiasis but the parasite has not been discovered in your stool specimen, or your healthcare provider assumes the parasite may have dispersed outside your digestive system, you may require the antibody test.

In most of the possibilities, Entamoeba infections don't result in symptoms. Amebiasis is more familiar in tropical countries that have impoverished sanitation.

Results

If antibodies to E. histolytica are established, they are calculated in units called titers. This is what your test outcomes may mean:

If a titer is less than 1:32 norms you probably do not hold amebiasis.

A titer of more than 1:128 may imply a functional or current amebiasis infection.

A titer between 1:256 and 1:2048 likely implies a current and functional amebiasis illness.

Frequently Asked Questions
FAQ

Intestinal amebiasis and extra-intestinal symptoms are caused by the protozoan Entamoeba histolytica. Ninety percent of E. histolytica infections are asymptomatic, but approximately 50 million develop symptoms, and each infection results in roughly 100,000 deaths.

There are occasionally elongated chromatoid bodies with bluntly rounded ends. In juvenile cysts, glycogen is clumped; in mature cysts, it might be widespread or absent. It is advised to use wet mount preparations and trichrome stained smears of stool specimens in order to identify E. histolytica/E.

Elevated percentage the pH range of 592.2% of the stool sample was 6.1 to 7. Conclusions: Patients with gastroenteritis, especially those with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), have a high rate of Entamoeba histolytica. ELISA A useful marker for identifying host damage brought on by parasites is fecal calprotectin.

Finding amebic trophozoites, cysts, or both in the feces or tissues supports the diagnosis of amebiasis; nevertheless, pathogenic E. histolytica and nonpathogenic E. dispar are physically identical.

A person may get infected with E. histolytica if they: Put anything in their mouth that has come into contact with the excrement (poop) of an infected individual. swallows anything that has been tainted with E, including food or water.

Histolytica, even after amebiasis has cleared up, could remain in your system. As a result, a positive antibody test occasionally indicates just that you have already been exposed to the parasite rather than that you are currently infected.
