Molecular Characterization of Virulent Genes and Antimicrobial Resistance Patterns of Escherichia coli Isolated From Calf Scours in Western Iran

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 1, January 2026.
This study in Western Iran analysed E. coli in diarrhoeic neonatal calves and identified 307 isolates from 350 faecal samples. The pathotypes included EHEC (36.59%), EPEC (20.42%), ETEC (14.46%), STEC (12.34%) and NTEC (11.48%), with four STEC O157:H7 isolates. Serotypes O103 and O15 were the most common.

Comparative analysis reveals conservation in genome organization among intestinal Cryptosporidium species and sequence divergence in potential secreted pathogenesis determinants among major human-infecting species

BMC Genomics, 2019
Background Cryptosporidiosis is a major cause of gastrointestinal diseases in humans and other vertebrates. Previous analyses of invasion-related proteins revealed that Cryptosporidium parvum, Cryptosporidium hominis, and Cryptosporidium ubiquitum mainly

The Microbiome Within a Microbe: Rethinking Blastocystis Biology

Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 73, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
ABSTRACT Blastocystis spp., one of the most prevalent microeukaryotes in the human gut, has long puzzled researchers with its ambiguous role in health and disease. Decades‐old microscopy studies reported bacterial‐ and viral‐like particles within Blastocystis spp. cells, but these findings have been mainly overlooked.

Advice on animal and public health risks of insects reared on former foodstuffs as raw material for animal feed

Food Risk Assess Europe, Volume 4, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract In the coming decades, there is expected to be a sharply increased demand for dietary proteins for humans and animals. As a result, there is an increasing focus on reared insects as a new source of protein. According to the Ministry of Agriculture, Nature and Food Quality (LNV), the use of food chain residual flows such as former foodstuffs as
