Diversity of bartonellae in mites (Acari: Mesostigmata: Macronyssidae and Spinturnicidae) of boreal forest bats: Association of host specificity of mites and habitat selection of hosts with vector potential

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 38, Issue 4, Page 518-529, December 2024.
Bats play a major role in the circulation of zoonotic pathogens. Mites (Macronyssidae and Spinturnicidae) may facilitate the long‐term maintenance (and even local recurrence) of Bartonella‐infestations. Mites may transmit several distinct Bartonella strains, which cluster phylogenetically close to Bartonella species known for their zoonotic role ...

Assessment of the Risks of Zoonotic Infection at the Primatology Centre of the Interdisciplinary Medical Research Centre of Franceville in Gabon

Journal of Medical Primatology, Volume 53, Issue 5, October 2024.
ABSTRACT Background Non‐human primate (NHPs) conservation sites could be sites of exchange of pathogens involved in infectious diseases. It is important to assess the potential risks associated with this type of structure. The objective of this study was to carry out a risk assessment of the Primatology Centre housed in the Interdisciplinary Centre for
