Microscopic Protozoan Observations

A series of photomicrographs depicting various protozoans like Naegleria gruberi and Paramecium, with diverse shapes and structures visible under high magnification.

Under 125X magnification, this photomicrograph of an agar medium revealed the presence of numerous non-pathogenic Naegleria gruberi amoebae. CDC 1971

Acanthamoeba is a microscopic, free-living amoeba, or amoeba (single-celled living organism), that can cause rare but serious eye, skin, and central nervous system infections. The amoeba is found worldwide in the environment in water and soil. The amoeba can spread to the eyes through the use of contact lenses, cuts or wounds in the skin, or by being inhaled into the lungs. Most people will be exposed to Acanthamoeba in their lifetime, but very few will become ill from this exposure

This scanning electron micrograph (SEM) depicts a Vibrio parahaemolyticus bacterium, Mag. 21851x. Vibrio parahaemolyticus is a bacterium in the same family as those that cause cholera. It lives in brackish saltwater, and causes gastrointestinal illness in humans. V. parahaemolyticus is a halophilic, or salt-requiring organism, naturally inhabiting coastal waters in the United States and Canada, and is present in higher concentrations during summer. When ingested, V. parahaemolyticus causes watery diarrhea often with abdominal cramping, nausea, vomiting fever and chills. Usually these symptoms occur within 24 hours of ingestion. Illness is usually self-limited and lasts 3 days. Severe disease is rare and occurs more commonly in persons with weakened immune systems. See image n1310105 on the site.

This photomicrograph of an iron-hematoxylin-stained specimen, revealed the presence of two amoebic organisms in their cystic stages of their development. In this focal plane, the smaller Entamoeba histolytica cyst (top), contained four nuclei, and two bluntly-tipped chromatoid bodies, while six nuclei could be detected in the larger Entamoeba coli cyst (bottom), which also contained two chromatoid bodies as well.
