Trichomonas vaginalis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Trichomonas vaginalis, an anaerobic, parasitic flagellated protozoan, is the causative agent of trichomoniasis, and is the most common pathogenic protozoan infection of humans in industrialized countries. vaginalis obtains nutrients by transport through the cell membrane and by phagocytosis. The organism is able to maintain energy requirements by the use of a small amount of enzymes to provide energy via glycolysis of glucose to glycerol and succinate in the cytoplasm, followed by further conversion of pyruvate and malate to hydrogen and acetate in an organelle called the hydrogenosome. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Trichomonas_vaginalis   (480 words)

Trichomonas   (Site not responding. Last check: ) Trichomonas vaginalis is a protozoan (a single-celled organism that is bigger and more complex than a bacterium) that infects the genital tracts of both women and men. Symptoms of trichomonas vaginitis/ cervicitis frequently include vaginal discharge, abnormal vaginal bleeding (typically after intercourse) due to cervical irritation, swelling and irritation of the genitals, itching of the vulva and abdominal pain. Trichomonas infection in pregnant women is associated with premature rupture of membranes (early breakage of the fluid sac surrounding a developing baby) and preterm labor. www.crossroadspregnancycenter.org /trich.htm   (591 words)

Bioline International Official Site (site up-dated regularly) Trichomonas vaginalis is a common cause of the infection of the female genital tract and trichomoniasis is recognized as a major sexually transmitted disease, while the Tritrichomonas foetus is responsible for the genital bovine urogenital trichomoniasis. It is possible that the hemolytic activity remains in the dependence of parasitic and erythrocytic cell surface receptors which probably carry mannose, because this activity is strongly reduced by pre-treatment of the parasites with Con A. These data suggest the intervention of the cell surface receptors as a mechanism of the hemolytic activity.

African Journal of Clinical and Experimental Microbiology - Vol. 4, No. 2 (2003) This study was conducted to determine the prevalence of Trichomonas vaginalis among the sexual partners of women with Trichomoniasis. Trichomonas vaginalis was isolated from 20(45.5%) of the 44 male contact investigated, whilst there was no laboratory evidence of the agent in 13(29.6%) of the study group. Eight (40%) of the 20 men with Trichomonas vaginalis and 43.2% of the 44 men investigated were between 20 and 29 years and this parallels that of other sexually transmitted diseases. www.ajol.info /viewarticle.php?id=1678&jid=47&layout=abstract   (303 words)

Medmicro Chapter 80 Trichomonas vaginalis is a pear-shaped trophozoite (7 to 23 µm long) with four anterior flagella and a fifth forming the outer edge of a short undulating membrane. Trichomonas tenax in the mouth and T hominis in the intestine are considered harmless commensals. Although non-venereal spread of T vaginalis is a subject of conjecture, little evidence exists on the importance of this means of transmission. gsbs.utmb.edu /microbook/ch080.htm   (4605 words)
