<FlashCard questions="3">
|q1=What is the key points of the life cycle and prepatent period of ''Giardia''?
|a1=
*Simple life cycle
*Direct life cycle
*Reproduce by binary fission
*5-6 day prepatent period
|l1=Giardia#Life Cycle
|q2=How do both people and animals become infected by ''Giardia''?
|a2=
*Water bourne transmission
*Direct faecal-oral transmission
|l2=Giardia#Epidemiology
|q3=How would you diagnose a ''Giardia'' infection?
|a3=
*The cysts are heavy and do not float well in saturated sodium chloride solution
*Cysts excretion is intermittent so faeces need to be collected and sampled over 3 days
*Cyst antigen can be detected in faeces by an immunoassay
|l3=Giardia#Diagnosis
