Molecular Detection and Genetic Diversity of Bat-Associated Bartonella spp. in Bat Ectoparasites Collected From Ratchaburi Province, Thailand. [PDF]

Vet Med Sci
Bat ectoparasites collected from four insectivorous bat species were identified through mitochondrial gene analysis. This study provides the first evidence of bat‐associated Bartonella species in ectoparasites, including bat flies (Phthiridium sp., Raymondia sp.

Response Surface Methodology-Based Optimization of Localized Heat Treatment for Managing <i>Cimex lectularius</i> (Hemiptera: Cimicidae) Infestations. [PDF]

Vet Med Int
This study explores the efficacy of localized heat treatment as a method for controlling bed bug (Cimex lectularius L.) infestations. Experiments were carried out to determine the lethal temperature and time necessary to achieve mortality in bed bugs and their eggs. Various combinations of lethal temperatures and exposure times were applied.

Ectoparasite Diversity and Infection Burden on Two Sympatric Bat Species, <i>Myotis lucifugus</i> and <i>M. septentrionalis</i> (Chiroptera: Vespertilionidae). [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Ectoparasite community diversity is similar between two endangered bat species in Atlantic Canada. Ectoparasite burden of the two most common ectoparasites varies between bat species in conjunction with their behavior and roosting differences. ABSTRACT Parasites are an abundant and diverse group of organisms that are often excluded from biodiversity ...

Insect Olfactory Receptor-Expressing Sensor Cells for Colorectal Cancer Diagnosis Using Urine Samples. [PDF]

Cancer Med
We developed a novel, noninvasive diagnostic method for colorectal cancer using sensor cells expressing insect ORs that detect volatile organic compounds in urine samples. By analyzing the luminescence responses of sensor cells and applying machine learning, our model achieved 80% sensitivity and an ROC‐AUC of 0.84 in distinguishing colorectal cancer ...

Bedbug (Cimex spp) Infestation in Settlements: A Cross-sectional Survey of Sanitation and Personal Hygiene Factors [PDF]

BIO Web of Conferences
Bed bugs (Cimex spp.) are blood-sucking insects commonly found in residential areas, dormitories, boarding schools, and shelters. High-risk environments, particularly those that use kapok-based housing materials or have inadequate sanitation, can be ...
