of this terrible infection.
[Naegleria fowleri, colloquially known as
a
"brain-eating amoeba", is a species
of the genus Naegleria, belonging to
the phylum Percolozoa, which is technically
not classified as true amoeba,
but a shapeshifting amoeboflagellate
excavate.[1] It is a free-living,
bacteria-eating microorganism that
can be pathogenic, causing an extremely rare,
sudden, severe and usually fatal brain
infection called naegleriasis or primary
amoebic meningoencephalitis (PAM).
This microorganism is typically found
in bodies of warm freshwater,such as ponds,
lakes, rivers, hot springs, warm water discharge
from industrial or power plants,
geothermal well water,
poorly maintained or minimally chlorinated
(under 0.5 mg/m3 residual) swimming pools,
water heaters, soil, and pipes connected
to tap water. It can be seen in either
an amoeboid or temporary flagellate stage.]
