AB Protozoa  are  considered  to  be  zoonotic,  eukaryotic,  single-celled  organisms.  They  possess  a  cellular  membrane  and,  in  contrast  to  bacteria,  a  nucleus.  Many  protozoa  have  different  proliferative  stages  and  undergo  substantial  changes  during  their  life  cycle.  As  a  consequence  of  their  size,  which  ranges  from  10  μm  to  greater  than  50  μm,  they  can  very  often  easily  be  found  in  various  tissues  (eg,  stool,  other  body  fluids).  Protozoa  are  widely  distributed  throughout  the  world.
