Giardia intestinalis, a flagellated protozoan parasite, is the most prevalent human intestinal protozoan worldwide (Adam, 2001). About 200 million people in the world are infected with giardiasis and each individual eliminates up to 900 million cysts per day (Minivielle , 2008). Higher prevalence is found in tropical and subtropical areas, where Giardia affects up to 30% of the population. In epidemiological studies carried out in Mexico and other sudamerican countries, prevalence between of 10-16% has been found in urban areas and 34% in shantytowns (Gamboa “et al”, 2003; Giraldo-Gomez, 2005; Sulaiman, 2004). G. intestinalis is a cosmopolitan pathogen with a very wide host range, including humans, domestic animals, and wild animal species (Caccio, 2008; Thompson, et al 1993). The most common cause of infection with Giardia is the consumption of contaminated food or water (Ortega, 1997), although zoonotic transmission is also possible. Once a person is infected, the parasite lives in the intestines and is passed in the stool of the infected person. Animals such as cats, dogs and cattle can also be infected and spread the disease to humans.
