Giardia trophozoites stained with Giemsa; 100x magnification. G. duodenalis trophozoites are pear-shaped cells, 10 to 20 μm long, 7 to 10 μm across, and 2 to 4 μm thick. [14] [15] They are motile by way of four pairs of flagella, which propel the trophozoites through the intestine. [15]
A duodenal biopsy may incidentally detect Giardia organisms, as in this H&E stained sample. [ 33 ] According to the CDC, the detection of antigens on the surface of organisms in stool specimens is the current test of choice for diagnosis of giardiasis and provides increased sensitivity over more common microscopy techniques.
About 40 species have been described, but most of them are probably synonyms. [11] Currently, five to six morphologically distinct species are recognised. [12] Giardia duodenalis (=G. intestinalis, =G. lamblia) infect humans and other mammals, G. microti infects voles, G. muris is found in other mammals, G. ardeae and G. psittaci in birds, and G. agilis in amphibians.

Histiocytoma is a benign skin tumor that is more frequent in young dogs (<4 years), and often regresses without treatment. [ 165 ] Malignant histiocytosis ( histiocytic sarcoma ) is an aggressive cancer found primarily in certain breeds including the Bernese Mountain Dog , rottweiler , golden retriever and flat coated retriever .
Brunner's glands (or duodenal glands) are compound tubuloalveolar submucosal glands found in that portion of the duodenum proximal to the hepatopancreatic sphincter (i.e sphincter of Oddi). [ citation needed ]
In trophozoites, the two nuclei are visible. The macronucleus is long and sausage-shaped, and the spherical micronucleus is nested next to it, often hidden by the macronucleus. The opening, known as the peristome, at the pointed anterior end leads to the cytostome, or the mouth. Cysts are smaller than trophozoites and are round and have a tough ...
The National Outdoor Leadership School has recorded about one incident per 5,000 person-field days by following strict protocols on hygiene and water treatment. [3] More limited, separate studies have presented highly varied estimated rates of affliction that range from 3 percent to 74 percent of wilderness visitors.
