Blastocystis is an obligately anaerobic protist, commonly found in intestinal tract of numerous animals and humans across whole world. It is genetically very variable and rather enigmatic organism. Many aspects of its biology need to be further studied and clarified. On a chosen farm were during the year 2010 collected samples of pig faeces for parasitological survey. A total number of 40 samples was collected and cultivated by the method of Dobel-Leidlaw (1926). Of them, 19 was positive for Blastocystis. Other samples were checked by molecular methods (PCR). Using them, five Blastocystis sequences were obtained, which clearly belong to subtypes 1 and 5.
