Life Cycle of Giardia Lamblia Model
Product Code : JC-BE-6263
The Life Cycle of Giardia Lamblia Model (SKU JC-BE-6263) is a Giardia life cycle model showing the trophozoite and cyst stages of this flagellate protozoan, also called Giardia intestinalis or duodenalis. It shows the four-nucleus cyst as the infective stage, faecal-oral spread through water, food and contact, and pear-shaped trophozoites with two nuclei and four pairs of flagella attaching to the duodenum by a ventral disc, which can cause malabsorption. It serves parasitology teaching. JaincoLab manufactures it in Ambala, India.
Specifications
The model is a parasitology teaching model of the Giardia lamblia life cycle, covering the infective cyst, site of infection, transmission, trophozoite form, pathogenic mechanism and diagnosis; its dimensions, material and base are not in the current product data and are confirmed on the quotation.

Uses of the Giardia life cycle model
Lecturers use the model to explain how a parasite that does not invade tissue can still cause malabsorption, by covering and disrupting the intestinal lining.
- Showing the quadrinucleate cyst as the infective stage
- Explaining faecal-oral spread through water and food
- Showing the pear-shaped trophozoite and its ventral disc
- Explaining mucosal disruption and malabsorption
- Introducing stool microscopy, antigen tests and the string test
