Organization profile

The Parasitological Diagnostic Laboratory performs diagnostics for taeniasis, cysticercosis, and other parasitic diseases in various types of fluids such as serum, cerebrospinal fluid, urine, and feces. It conducts research on the characterization of cerebral inflammation caused by the Taenia solium parasite, using naturally infected pigs as a model and evaluating the calcification processes of neurocysticercosis. It evaluates host-parasite interaction at the anatomical and histopathological level, mainly in terms of immune response, under the effects of anthelmintic and anti-inflammatory drugs and novel treatments. Parasitological diagnosis is important in our country, as most diseases are considered neglected diseases to which very few resources are allocated. In our environment, parasitic diseases.
