Initially, the term chemotherapy referred to the treatment by means of drugs preventing selectively the development of various kinds of infesting hosts protozoa (amoebas, leishmania, hematozoa, treponema, trypanosoma), microbes, viruses and as a rule all parasites which propagate infectious diseases. In the same context of selective toxicity, the anti-cancer treatments also belong to the class of chemotherapeutic agents. [Pg.39]

Amoeba (plural, amoebae) Protozoa that can alter their cell shape, usually by the extrusion of one or more pseudopodia. [Pg.603]

Since most protozoa feed on detritus and bacteria, their occurrence in drinking water is not unexpected [45]. Ciliate and amoeboid forms are commonly observed in uncovered finished water reservoirs [59] and amoebae have also been observed in uncontaminated distribution systems especially the geiiera Hartmanella, Naegleria, Echinamoeba and Acanthamoeba [45]. [Pg.379]

A cell wall, when present, provides external support but does not regulate permeability which is the function of the plasma membrane, a totally different structure (see next Section). A total lack of cell walls is one of the outstanding features of the animal kingdom. Only in a small proportion of unicellular animals can cell walls be found, as in Eimeria and Chlamydomonas which have walls of protein and cellulose, respectively. Yet the majority of the protozoa, including Amoeba and Trypanosoma, lack this outer cage. Cell walls are, however, a special feature of plants (including fungi) and bacteria. [Pg.183]

Active movement is one of the signs of life. The universal actuator in the animal kingdom is the muscle. The striated skeletal muscle - which is the focus of the following discussion is the evolutionary highlight of biological actuators. Early stages functioning as contractile elements can even be seen in protozoa such as amoebas. [Pg.469]

Under certain conditions (i.e., poor housekeeping), ciliate protozoa Bodo sp.), flagellates and amoeba protozoa (bacteria predators) and even metazoan organisms such as nematodes (protozoa predators) are present in... [Pg.186]
