Currently, we know several types of human blood spirochetes. The best studied are the following four species: 1) spirochete Obermeier'a, or spir. recurrentis, the causative agent of European relapsing fever, discovered Obe g me ie th in 1873, 2) spiroch. Duttoni, the causative agent of the African form of relapsing fever, discovered by Ros S'OM and Mi1Pe'om, as well as Dutton'OM and Todd'oM in 1904, 3) spiroch. Kochi, discovered in 1905

The protozoan parasite Entamoeba histolytica is the causative agent of amebiasis in man. The trophozoite or motile form is a highly dynamic and pleomorphic cell with a great capacity to destroy tissues. Moreover, the parasite has the singular ability to phagocytize a variety of different live or death cells. Phagocytosis of red blood cells by E. histolytica trophozoites is a complex phenomenon related with amebic pathogenicity and nutrition.
