Prevalence, Genetic Diversity, and Zoonotic Transmission Potential of Cryptosporidium spp. in Snakes: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. [PDF]
Vet Med SciThis study provides the first global systematic synthesis of Cryptosporidium spp. infection in snakes. A pooled prevalence of 12.6% was identified, with higher occurrence in captive‐associated populations than in wild snakes. Eight Cryptosporidium species, including multiple zoonotic taxa, were reported, underscoring the potential role of snakes within

Survey of Gastrointestinal Parasites of Farmed Pigs in Ghana. [PDF]
Vet Med SciSurvey of Gastrointestinal Parasites of Farmed Pigs in Ghana Gastrointestinal parasites were common in pigs sampled from Kpone Katamanso Municipality, Ghana, with an overall prevalence of 67.6%. Complementary formol–ether concentration, modified McMaster, and modified Ziehl–Neelsen techniques improved parasite detection, while polymerase chain reaction

Current Biology, 2018 The apicomplexan parasite Cryptosporidium parvum is the second leading cause of death in children due to diarrheal disease worldwide. Gibson and Striepen offer insights into the fascinating biology of this poorly understood parasite, and describe new strategies aimed at defeating it.

Microbiology (Reading, England), 2019 The protozoan Cryptosporidium is notorious for its resistance to chlorine disinfection, a mainstay of water treatment. Human infections, mainly of the small intestine, arise from consumption of faecally contaminated food or water, environmental exposure, and person-to-person or animal-to-person spread.

Gastrointestinal Parasites of Domestic Ducks (Anas platyrhynchos domesticus) in Kathmandu, Nepal. [PDF]
Vet Med SciGastrointestinal parasites in ducks raised on smallholder farms in Kathmandu, Nepal, are investigated using copromicroscopic examination. A diverse range of protozoa and helminth parasites are detected including the first records of Entamoeba spp., Cryptosporidium sp. and Tyzzeria sp. in ducks in Nepal.

Cryptosporidium parvum, Cryptosporidium ryanae, and Cryptosporidium bovis in samples from calves in Austria [PDF]
Parasitology Research, 2020 AbstractFecal samples of 177 calves of up to 180 days of age with diarrhea from 70 farms in Austria were examined to obtain information on the occurrence of Cryptosporidium species. Initially, all samples were examined by phase-contrast microscopy. Cryptosporidium-positive samples (55.4%; n = 98) were screened by gp60 PCR, resulting in 68.4% (n = 67) C.

Development of a gp60-subtyping method for Cryptosporidium felis
Parasites & Vectors, 2020 Background Feline cryptosporidiosis is an increasing problem, especially in catteries. In humans, close contact with cats could be a potential source of infection although the risk of contracting cryptosporidiosis caused by Cryptosporidium felis is ...
