Trypanosoma
- Trypanosoma cruzi
- Chagas' Disease (aka American Trypanosomiasis)
- Trypanosoma brucei
- Sleeping Sickness (aka African Trypanosomiasis)
- Leishmania spp.
- Leishmaniasis
Apicomplexa
- Plasmodium falciparum
- Malaria
- Plasmodium vivax
- Malaria
- Toxoplasma gondii
- Toxoplasmosis
Others
- Entamoeba histolytica
- Amoebiasis
- Giardia lamblia
- Giardiasis
- Cryptosporidium parvum
- Cryptosporidiosis
