Procedure Observe the preserved specimens/slides/photographs and note down the features in the practical record book. Take care to observe all the minute details and draw labelled diagrams of the pathogens. Observation A. Entamoeba Observe the following features of the parasite in the slide or photograph: (i) It is unicellular. (ii) Shape of the cell is irregular due to pseudopodia. (iii) A single nucleus is present eccentrically in the cell. (iv) *In the nucleus a peripheral ring of granule of nucleoprotein and central karyosome are observed. Rest of the space in the nucleus looks empty (Fig. 14.1). (v) A few food vacuoles may be seen in the cytoplasm. Contractile vacuoles are absent. (vi) *Mature quadrinucleated cysts may be present. Fig.14.1 An Entamoeba 21/04/2018 50 LABORATORY MANUAL: BIOLOGY Note: Entamoeba is an intestinal parasite in humans and causes amoebic dysentery. The symptoms of the disease are frequent loose, mucus filled watery stools, abdominal pain and spasms. Systematic position Phylum – Protozoa Class – Rhizopoda Type – Entamoeba histolytica Distinctive feature of the pathogen B. Plasmodium vivax C. Ascaris The external features of round worm are as follows: (i) Body long (20 to 40 cm), cylindrical (5 to 6 mm diameter) with no segmentation (Fig. 14.3). (ii) Sexes are separate; the females are longer than the males. (iii) Both the ends are pointed; posterior end of male is ventrally curved. (iv) Mouth is situated at the anterior end, and is surrounded by three lips, one present middorsally and rest two lips are situated ventrolaterally (for viewing these lips a magnifying lens is needed). (v) Single longitudinal lines are present on the dorsal, ventral and on the two lateral sides, all along the length of the body. Out of these the lateral lines are comparatively more distinct than the others lines. (vi) Excretory pore is present on the ventral surface slightly behind the anterior end. (vii) In addition to the ventrally curved posterior tip, the male worm has a pair of penial spicules very close to the cloacal opening. (viii) In case of female specimen a female genital aperture is present mid-ventrally about one third distance from the anterior end. Systematic position Phylum – Aschelminthes Class – Nematoda Type – Ascaris lumbricoides Note: Round worm or Ascaris is one of the common parasite found in the intestine of human beings. Symptoms: (a) Irregular bowel, (b) Occasional vomiting, (c) Anaemia (i) It is an intracellular endoparasite seen easily within the RBC of the infected person. (ii) It is unicellular. (iii) The most diagnostic stage of the parasite is "signet ring" stage in the erythrocytes, within which it appears as a rounded body (Fig. 14.2). (iv) It has a big vacuole inside, and the cytoplasm is accumulated at one place containing the nucleus. Because of the above mentioned features, the parasite appears as a ring. Search the stage in the blood film slide, find the signet-ring stage, and draw its labeled diagram. Note: It is a protozoan parasite causing malaria in humans. When an infected female anopheles mosquito bites a healthy person, it injects the infective stage, sporozoite, into the peripheral blood vessels. The infective stage undergoes several rounds of multiplication in liver and erythrocytes. Symptoms: Intermittent high fever with chills followed by profuse sweating at an interval of alternate days. Systematic position Phylum – Protozoa Class – Sporozoa Type – Plasmodium vivax Trichophyton (Ringworm fungus) It is a fungus that feeds on keratin of the skin of human beings. The features as observed under the microscope are: 1. Texture of hyphae is waxy, glabrous to cotton like. 2. Unstained hyphae are white, yellowish brown to reddish brown in colour. Systematic position Kingdom – Fungi Class – Deuteromycetes Type – Trichophyton rubrum Symptoms Ringworm is a contagious fungal infection of the skin. Infected area of skin is itchy, red, raised, scaly patches (with sharply defined edges). It is more #LETMEEXPLAINNOWBHARATPANWAR
