Advancement in the Identification of Parasites and Obstacles in the Treatment of Intestinal Parasitic Infections: A Brief Overview

Nowadays, intestinal parasite infections (IPIs) continue to be a serious public health issue worldwide. Helminth and protozoa are common examples of infections caused by poverty and inadequate sanitation, which act as two variables linked to IPIs. In response to the growing impact of IPIs, more advanced detection techniques have been researched and developed. To identify these parasites, the diagnostic method’s efficacy is paramount. In view of the above, microscopy as a traditional method is now assisted by serology and molecular biological tools. The modern technological tools will help to assess the efficacy of eliminating these parasitic illnesses and future control programs.
