ABSTRACT The gill parasite Sparicotyle chrysophrii poses a significant threat to gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata) aquaculture in the Mediterranean, causing considerable mortality and economic losses. As traditional chemotherapeutic treatments, like formalin, face growing regulatory restrictions, there is an urgent need for alternative control ...

Artificial intelligence‐powered microscopy: Transforming the landscape of parasitology
Abstract Microscopy and image analysis play a vital role in parasitology research; they are critical for identifying parasitic organisms and elucidating their complex life cycles. Despite major advancements in imaging and analysis, several challenges remain. These include the integration of interdisciplinary data; information derived from various model

Serum IgG Responses to gp15 and gp40 Protein-Derived Synthetic Peptides From Cryptosporidium parvum
Cryptosporidium spp. are responsible for moderate to severe diarrhea, mainly in children and immunocompromised patients. Using ELISA, the recognition of synthetic peptides generated from the sequences of the Cryptosporidium parvum gp40 and gp15 proteins ...

Filter feeding by oysters reduces disease transmission in a marine host–parasite system
Abstract As a mechanism of the dilution effect, predation and filter feeding on parasitic propagules are hypothesized to reduce transmission to susceptible hosts and alter host–parasite interactions. In marine systems, the effect of other community members on the disease dynamics of microparasites in their suitable hosts is poorly known.

Cryptosporidium parvum sporozoites contain glutathione
We used the fluorescent dye monochlorobimane (MCB) which binds glutathione (GSH) to localize between 2 and 6 distinctly labelled nuclear and cytoplasmic GSH foci in recently excreted and aged, intact Cryptosporidium parvum oocysts and sporozoites. Buthionine sulfoximine (BSO), a potent and specific inhibitor of GSH, was used to determine whether GSH is

The modification of the glassy carbon electrode with carbon quantum dot‐titanium dioxide‐manganese dioxide (CQD‐TiO2–MnO2) and the immobilization of the aptamer have significantly enhanced the performance of the newly developed aptasensor. This improvement has led to better electrochemical performance, an increased electroactive surface area ...
