Serum IgG Responses to gp15 and gp40 Protein-Derived Synthetic Peptides From Cryptosporidium parvum

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022
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 ...

Impacts of rodents in piggeries in Australia – review and pilot impact study

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 3, Page 2177-2189, March 2026.
Rodent impacts in Australian piggeries are under‐researched, with limited data on economic losses and control costs. A review and pilot study found average losses of AUD$100 000 annually. Key concerns include disease, damage, and control expenses.

Neonatal Mouse Gut Metabolites Influence Cryptosporidium parvum Infection in Intestinal Epithelial Cells

mBio, 2020
The protozoan parasite Cryptosporidium sp. is a leading cause of diarrheal disease in those with compromised or underdeveloped immune systems, particularly infants and toddlers in resource-poor localities.

Fenton Treatment of Filter Backwash Water for Recycling in DWTP

Water Environment Research, Volume 98, Issue 3, March 2026.
The graphical abstract illustrates the treatment and recycling pathway of filter backwash water (FBW) generated in drinking water treatment plants. The proposed treatment innovatively applies the Fenton advanced oxidation process, using the iron naturally present in the FBW, with a sedimentation step for effective clarification. ABSTRACT Drinking water

Modeling Factors Associated With Diarrhea Caused by Cryptosporidium Species Using Machine Learning Methods

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, Volume 40, Issue 3, February 2026.
This study applies machine learning methods, specifically Random Forest and Bagged CART, to classify Cryptosporidium spp. infections among children and identify key risk factors. The Bagged CART model demonstrated superior sensitivity and predictive performance, highlighting household crowding and water source as the most influential determinants of ...

Artificial intelligence‐powered microscopy: Transforming the landscape of parasitology

Journal of Microscopy, Volume 301, Issue 2, Page 280-329, February 2026.
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

Characterization of the Cryptosporidium antigens from sporulated oocysts of Cryptosporidium parvum [PDF]

Infection and Immunity, 1987
The antigenic constituents of sporulated Cryptosporidium parvum oocyst antigens were characterized with antisera from mice immunized against C. parvum. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis followed by silver staining defined the major proteins. Six of seven lectins used recognized as many as 15 bands.

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

Filter feeding by oysters reduces disease transmission in a marine host–parasite system

Ecology, Volume 107, Issue 1, January 2026.
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.
