    A cross-sectional, descriptive, prospective, quantitative study was conducted, collecting 90 lettuce (Lactuca sativa) samples." The samples were processed using the Alvarez et al. methodology and the modified Ziehl-Neelsen staining technique. Results: A parasitic contamination rate of 80% was found in the Caquetá market, followed by 70% in the Huamantanga market. The findings included Strongyloides sp (33.7%), Trichomonas sp (24.1%), Blastocystis sp cysts (6.0%), and Uncinaria sp eggs (1.2%). Based on these results, the study recommends training for all participants in the production chain on proper cultivation and handling of vegetables and the preventive monitoring of markets for parasites in fruits and vegetables.
