Detection ssurRNA gene in children infected by giardiasis

Abstract

Abstract Intestinal parasites that infect humans are widespread health problems, especially in tropical and semitropical zone, is no less important than other microscopic pathogens because it has the ability to infect most of the body’s organs and lead to sometimes fatal complications that end in death, in addition to its ability to reproduce and in great numbers, which led to the failure to eliminate it completely, parasitic protozoa and helminthes intestinal are a large variety of parasites that live in the intestine. This study aimed at investigating the infection of Giardia lambila in babies with diarrhea who have been referred to (the women’s hospital and children in Babylon, 200 samples of feces were collected form infants patients during the period from January 2018-July 2018, alaboratory microscopictestshowed topositive infection rate50/200 (25%), thise positive samples were examined secondly by Real-Time PCR as a more accurate detection and showed 41/50 (92.41%).
