In the Czech Republic, 40 to 50 cases of Entamoeba histolytica/dispar infections are reported annually to the National Reference Laboratory for diagnostics of intestinal parasitoses. However, the actual number of patients with Entamoeba histolytica infection is unknown as diagnosis relies on cyst detection in faecal samples by microscopy, the method which cannot differentiate between pathogenic E. histolytica and nonpathogenic E. dispar. The aim of this study was (1) to evaluate the proportions between E.histolytica and E. dispar in patients, mainly travellers, using multiplex nested PCR technique, (2) to evaluate specificity of the technique for detection of these species.
