Joshi, NV, Medina, H., and Tucci, P. 2001. Effect of an electric field on the motility of
Entamoeba histolytica examined by multiple-beam interference microscopy. Experimental
Parasitology97, 179–185. A recently developed multiple-beam interference microscopic
technique has been used to visualize submicroscopic structures of Entamoeba histolytica
and their movements in applied external electric fields. The movements were videorecorded
and it was found that at low current (120 μA) pseudopods are filled with hyaline ectoplasm …
