Blastocystis is a ubiquitous waterborne parasite that has been implicated in some disease conditions including colorectal cancer and irritable bowel syndrome, and its surface coat characteristics have been associated with its pathogenicity. Although the morphology of Blastocystis isolates from human and animal sources have been studied, there is a paucity of data on the surface ultrastructure of Blastocystis isolated from water sources. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the occurrence and the ultrastructural surface of Blastocystis isolates from several water sources in Kedah and Penang, Malaysia.

Blastocystis is a prevalent infectious agent found in the gastrointestinal tract of humans and animals. While the morphology of Blastocystis has been extensively studied, there is still a lack of comprehensive research on its ultrastructure, especially regarding surface characteristics and their correlation with pathogenic potential. Additionally, the subtyping of Blastocystis does not provide information on the isolate's pathogenicity.

There has been increasing interest in the study of Blastocystis in the last two decades. Many studies have been carried out in human and animal hosts including environmental sources, but there is little or no information on the occurrence of Blastocystis in water sources worldwide. Therefore, this study aimed at assessing the occurrence of Blastocystis in water sources across the world from 2005 to 2022, noting the method of detection and the distribution of the subtypes from various water sources.

Blastocystis is the most prevalent eukaryotic gastrointestinal symbiont found in humans and animals worldwide. Increased human infection rates are associated with raising concerns about the involvement of the parasite in public health. Over the last decade, the number of linked epidemiology studies has been prudently grown.
