how to identify axostyle of giardia ? according to levinson

Answer 38

To identify the axostyle of *Giardia* according to Levinson: 1. Prepare a stool sample (wet mount or stained slide). 2. Use a microscope to look for pear-shaped *Giardia* trophozoites. 3. Identify the **axostyle** as a thin, rigid, rod-like structure running through the midline of the trophozoite. 4. Confirm with staining (e.g., trichrome) and compare with reference images. The axostyle provides structural support and is a key diagnostic feature.
