Intestinal parasitosis is one of the main problems of public health worldwide. Its morbidity is strictly linked to poverty, lack of personal hygiene, lack of sanitary restrooms, inadequate water supply and fecal contamination which affect mainly children in many developing countries. This study aimed to shed decide the presence of intestinal enteroparasites in the student population of Majara, taking into account personal, educational and environmental factors that favor parasitism.

To achieve the objectives of the study, human stool samples were analyzed using the direct method in triplicate and the flotation concentration technique. In the same way, samples were taken corresponding to water, soil and vegetables at different places.

In sample of human we found parasites and intestinal commensals, the 63.4% were positive for parasites, Prevailing the commensal protozoan Blastocystis hominis with 31% and the parasite Giardia intestinalis with 12.1%. In the environmental samples of water for human consumption Eimeria sp. was in 3.8% positivity, in the soil we found 11.5% standing out the parasite Taenia sp. and in vegetables 39.3%, we observe the parasites Strongyloides sp. and Ascaris sp. in addition to other environmental nematodes. In conclusion, we determined that the parasitic quality of water, soil and vegetables are a source of contamination by parasites for children in the community of Majara, which along with other personal and educational factors, workers collaboratively in the transmission and permanence of intestinal parasites within the community.
