- PublicaciónRestringidoPresencia de amebas de vida libre y bacterias endosimbioticas en agua de consumo de los municipios de PAMPLONA y de VILLA DEL ROSARIO.(Cúcuta: Universidad de Sántander, 2018, 2018-06-25) Jimenez Garza, Marlen Andrea.; Bermon Martinez, Maria Fernanda.; Ríos Ramírez, Yesmit-Karina.; Contreras Rangel, Jael.Free living amoeba (FLA) are protozoa that are widely distributed in the environment, in fact they are distributed in soils, waters, air conditioners, swimming pools, etc. These microorganisms can develop severe pathologies in humans, mainly due to their various mechanisms of resistance, these pathologies range from courses of serious infections such as primary amoebic meningoencephalitis and granulomatous amebic encephalitis to milder cases such as amoebic keratitis. In reference to the resistance of these microorganisms we have an important factor to highlight as the temperature, since these have a capacity to withstand high temperatures. On the other hand, these microorganisms also have the ability to have an interaction with fungal viruses and bacteria called endosymbiosis, these AVL, in addition to feeding on these microorganisms, give them protection from being digested by them, in addition to external factors and increase in virulence capacity, constituting a Public Health problem. That said, the objective was to determine the presence of free-living amoebas and endosymbiotic bacteria in drinking water in the municipalities of Pamplona and Villa del Rosario.
