Haemozoin is a toxin released from Plasmodium-infected cells during the malaria infection cycle. When the malaria parasite (Plasmodium species) infects red blood cells, it digests hemoglobin to obtain nutrients. This process results in the formation of haemozoin, a toxic byproduct. Haemozoin accumulates in the infected cells and contributes to the symptoms of malaria, such as fever and chills, during the parasite's life cycle. Wuchereria bancrofti and Wuchereria malayi are types of filarial worms that can cause a condition known as elephantiasis or filariasis. These worms live in the lymphatic vessels of the lower limbs, as well as in the genital organs, leading to chronic inflammation and damage over many years. Many fungi belonging to the genera Microsporum, Trichophyton and Epidermophyton are responsible for ringworms which is one of the most common infectious diseases in man. Appearance of dry, scaly lesions on various parts of the body such as skin, nails and scalp are the main symptoms of the disease. Entamoeba histolytica is a protozoan parasite in the large intestine of human which causes amoebiasis (amoebic dysentery). Symptoms of this disease include constipation, abdominal pain and cramps, stools with excess mucous and blood clots. Houseflies act as mechanical carriers and serve to transmit the parasite from faeces of infected person to food and food products, thereby contaminating them. Drinking water and food contaminated by the faecal matter are the main source of infection. |
