Objectives: The mechanism of action of, and resistance to, metronidazole in the anaerobic (or micro-aerotolerant) protozoan parasite Giardia lamblia has long been associated with the reduction of ferredoxin (Fd) by the enzyme pyruvate:ferredoxin oxid

Infections with the diarrheagenic pathogen, Giardia lamblia, are commonly treated with the 5-nitroimidazole (5-NI) metronidazole (Mz), and yet treatment failures and Mz resistance occur. Using a panel of new 2-ethenyl and 2-ethanyl 5-NI derivatives,

The cytidine triphosphate synthetase genes from three diverse strains of Giardia duodenalis have been sequenced and found to vary significantly from one another. The isolates were chosen as representatives of three demes as determined by several crit

Numerous studies have demonstrated various strain differences between Giardia isolates, but little is known about the immunology and pathogenesis of infections. This study aimed to compare host responses to strains of Giardi duodenalis differing in l
