Descendants of slaves who arrived in Brazil in the sixteenth century, this population settled in the municipality of S\u00e3o Mateus in 1858. Fresh fecal samples from 82 individuals who agreed to participate in the study were collected between August 2009 and July 2010, and immediately sent to the Clinical Laboratory of the Centro Universit\u00e1rio Norte do Esp\u00edrito Santo of the Universidade Federal do Esp\u00edrito Santo for analysis. Out of all the participants, 36 (43.9%) were male and 46 (56.1%) were female, whose ages ranged from six to 85 years. The study of the occurrence of intestinal parasites indicated that 35 individuals (42.7%) were infected with at least one intestinal parasite. Among helminths, the most frequent were hookworms, with a rate of 14.6%. With regard to protozoa, Entamoeba coli, Entamoeba histolytica\/Entamoeba dispar and Endolimax nana stood out, with frequencies of 23.2%, 8.5% and 4.9%, respectively. The occurrence of biparasitism was observed in 13 of the 82 subjects, accounting for 15.8%, and no cases of multiple parasitic infections were observed. It was concluded that the reduction of cases of intestinal diseases due to parasites will only be achieved with the improvement of basic sanitation and quality of life of quilombola populations.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1590\/s0036-46652013000300007","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,8,23]],"date-time":"2013-08-23T19:36:17Z","timestamp":1377286577000},"page":"179-183","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":12,"title":["Intestinal parasites in a quilombola community of the Northern State of Esp\u00edrito Santo, Brazil"],"prefix":"10.1590","volume":"55","author":[{"given":"Schayra Minine","family":"Damazio","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade Federal do Esp\u00edrito Santo, Brasil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Marcela de Souza","family":"Lima","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade Federal do Esp\u00edrito Santo, Brasil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Aparecida Rios","family":"Soares","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade Federal do Esp\u00edrito Santo, Brasil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Marco Ant\u00f4nio Andrade de","family":"Souza","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade Federal do Esp\u00edrito Santo, Brasil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"530","reference":[{"key":"ref1","first-page":"1","article-title":"Identidade cultural: comunidades quilombolas do extremo sul da Bahia em quest\u00e3o","volume":"8","author":"Abreu ELB","year":"2010","journal-title":"Rev \u00c1frica Africanidades"},{"key":"ref2","first-page":"231","article-title":"Parasitoses intestinais: uma revis\u00e3o sobre seus aspectos sociais, epidemiol\u00f3gicos, cl\u00ednicos e terap\u00eauticos","volume":"13","author":"Andrade EC","year":"2010","journal-title":"Rev APS"},{"key":"ref3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"337","DOI":"10.5123\/S1679-49742011000300008","article-title":"Preval\u00eancia de parasitoses intestinais em comunidade quilombola no munic\u00edpio de Bias Fortes, Estado de Minas Gerais, Brasil, 2008","volume":"20","author":"Andrade EC","year":"2011","journal-title":"Epidemiol Serv Saude"},{"key":"ref4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"119","DOI":"10.1590\/S0036-46652012000300001","article-title":"Intestinal parasitism and socio-environmental factors among Mby\u00e1-Guarani indians, Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil","volume":"54","author":"Brandelli CL","year":"2012","journal-title":"Rev Inst Med Trop Sao Paulo"},{"key":"ref5","article-title":"Constitui\u00e7\u00e3o.
