Trophozoites (CP0079)

Description

Trophozoites in stool refer to the active, motile form of intestinal protozoa detected during microscopic examination of fresh fecal samples. Their presence indicates active parasitic infection, commonly caused by organisms such as Entamoeba histolytica or Giardia lamblia. Detection of trophozoites is clinically significant and typically associated with diarrhea, dysentery, abdominal pain, and intestinal inflammation. Examination must be performed promptly to preserve motility.
