Abstract

GIARDIA LAMBLIA is one of the most common intestinal protozoan parasites infecting human in the world. The goal of this study was searching for in-vitro effect of FOLIC ACID and cobalamin on adhesion and growth of G. lamblia as two important mechanisms in the pathogenesis in TYI-S-33 medium. G. lamblia trophozoites were obtained by in- vitro excystation procedure. Three groups of Giardia trophozoites were analyzed: control group, G.lamblia was cultured in TYI-S-33 without any vitamin, 2nd group with 0.1 mg/ml vitamin B12 or FOLIC ACID, and 3rd group with 0.5mg/ml of vitamin B12 or FOLIC ACID. All culture media tubes incubated at 37oC. After 2 h of incubation, the adherence into borosilicate culture tubes, and after 24 h the growth of trophozoites were measured .The results showed that in vitamin B12 groups, the growth was increased significantly (P£ 0.05) but the adherence decreased significantly (P£ 0.05). FOLIC ACID inhibited the growth rate significantly (P£ 0.05), but it increased adherence in axenic culture significantly (P£ 0.05). The results showed that vitamin B12 and FOLIC ACID altogether might reduce pathogenesis of G. lamblia by reducing adherence and growth, respectively.
