Intro
free linving amoeba:-
Inhabit ,,,,,,,and,,,,,,,,,
No ,,,,,,, no ,,,,,,,no,,,,,,,,,
NO human to human transmission
No relation with saniatation
Soil and water
no definitive host no Resvoir no Vector
Mention morphology of Neglaria Fowleri ?
2 Stages Trophozoites+cyst
3 froms :
Ameboid trophozite
Flagellate Trophozite
Cyst
Invective stage of Neglarai fowelri ? >
Ameboid tropohzoites
Invective stage of Neglarai fowelri ? >
Ameboid tropohzoites
Diagnostic Stage of Neglaria fwoelir?
Ameboid trophozoites
dividing form
only form found in tissue and CSF
Mention size and shape of Ameboid trophozite of NF
Size 7-20 micro
Shape :
broad end with peusdopodium called lopopodia
Narrow end
Describe nucleous and Cytoplasm of Ambeoid cyst of Neglaria fowlair ?
Nucelus : large central vesicular with Central Karyosome + no peripheral chromatin
Cytoplasm : Clear ectoplasm
+ Granular endoplasm with contractile vacuoles
What is PAM what is causing it?
Primary Ambeoic meningocencephalitis
By Neglaria Fowaleri !
Flagellated trophozoites is
,,,,,,,and…..and………
formed when amobeis stage is exposed to change in ,,,,,?
It changes to ameboid form when there is unfavrable conditions in water before ,,,,?
Temporary , non dividing , nonfeeding

Encysation
Describe shape and nuscleus of Flagellate trophozoites
It pear like with 2 flagellats
Nulceus :
large vesicular with central karyosome and no peripheral chrmoatins
Resistant stage of Neglaria Fowlei?
Cyst stage
7-15 micro in size
Why cyst cannot be seen in sepicemins ?
and describe its shape + Nucelus
Because the course of the disease is Rapid and fatal even before trophozite encyst
shape : spherical with dobule wall with pore
Nucelus with single Nuceloulus
Habitiat of N,fowleri ?
Soil and infected water
Human brain
Mode of transmisson of PAM ?
Primary amboeic menigionencephalitis
1-Swimming and diving in infected water containing Amboeid trophozoites of N.fowleri
through nose to cribriform plate and olfactory nerve to brain cause acute suppuraive inflammation.
2-Inhalation of aerosols containing the Trophozites
PAM caused but secnodary casued by?
PAM by N.fwoleir
Secondary entamboeica histolytica
Pathogenisis of nagelria fowleri describe
Enter through nose to
cribirofom plate to
olfactory nerve
to brain and meiniges
casuing acute suppurative meningoencephlaitis
in perivascular spaces
N,fowleeri has 2 ways to kill cells how ?
1-Trogocytosis : Ingestion of cytoplasm
2-Contact dependent lysis=acute necrotizing meninigoencephalitis
C/P OF Naglarie fowelri ?
commonly affecting, ,,,,and,,,,
IP = …TO….
ONSET= ACUTE = ?
Chidlren and young adults

History for diagnosis of Naglareira fowleir?
Swimmming in infected water
Taste and smell changes differetiating it from ? Bacterial meningits
Lumbar puncture in PAM reveal ?
Ameboid trophoziote
