Nov 4, 2015 · Of the so-called nonpathogenic intestinal protozoa, Endolimax nana belongs to the ones least well described. Most data on E. nana have emerged from general surveys of intestinal parasites in selected cohorts and mostly in the absence of any particular focus on Endolimax.
Entamoeba coli, E. hartmanni, E. polecki, Endolimax nana, and Iodamoeba buetschlii are generally considered nonpathogenic and reside in the lumen of the large intestine in the human host. Both cysts and trophozoites of these species are passed in stool and are considered diagnostic .
Feb 11, 2017 · l'Endolimax nana è una ameba patogena abbastanza rara alle nostre latitudini. Blactocystis hominis è un protozoo intestinale, a contagio oro - fecale, sulla cui reale patogenicità ancora si...
Endolimax is a genus of amoebozoa that are found in the intestines of various animals, including the species E. nana found in humans. Originally thought to be non-pathogenic, studies suggest it can cause intermittent or chronic diarrhea.
L' E. histolytica è morfologicamente indistinguibile dall' E. dispar, dall' E. moshkovskii e dall' E. bangladeshi ma può essere distinta al microscopio da un numero di amebe non patogene, comprese l' E. coli, l' E. hartmanni, l' E. polecki, l' Endolimax nana, e la Iodamoeba bütschlii.
Endolimax nana. Ameba cosmopolita di piccole dimensioni, vive nel colon e non è patogena. Dimensioni: da 5 a 12μm; in media 8-10μm, leggermente più piccolo di Iodamoeba buetschlii. Mobilità: visibile solo in campioni di feci appena emesse non fissati.
Jun 13, 2012 · Blastocystis hominis and Endolimax nana are two intestinal parasitic organisms that are distributed worldwide with a higher prevalence in tropical and sub-tropical climates. Co-infection of these organisms occurs due to their identical mode of transmissions, via the fecal-oral route and ingestion of cysts from contaminated water supplies.
In this review, we seek to provide an overview of the work that has been performed on the parasite since the genus Endolimax was described by Kuenen and Swellengrebel in 1917 and suggest activities that may pave the way for a better understanding of E. nana in a clinical and public health context.

Endolimax nana (Fig. 4-1) is the smallest of the intestine-dwelling amoebae infecting humans, its trophozoite averaging only 8 μm in diameter (range, 6-15 μm). The trophozoite lives in the host’s colon and is generally considered to be nonpathogenic.
