β‐myrcene: A nature‐identical compound for sustainable aquaculture
Abstract Sustainability is essential for the continued development of aquaculture. A key aspect of sustainable aquaculture involves using natural and organic compounds as alternatives to chemical counterparts. Herbal‐derived compounds have gained significant attention because of their eco‐friendly properties and health benefits.

Effects of drinking-water filtration on Cryptosporidium Seroepidemiology, Scotland [PDF]
Continuous exposure to low levels of Cryptosporidium oocysts is associated with production of protective antibodies. We investigated prevalence of antibodies against the 27-kDa Cryptosporidium oocyst antigen among blood donors in 2 areas of Scotland ...

A HAPPY Map ofCryptosporidium parvum [PDF]
We have constructed a HAPPY map of the apicomplexan parasiteCryptosporidium parvum. We have placed 204 markers on the 10.4-Mb genome, giving an average marker spacing of ∼50 kb, with an effective resolution of ∼40 kb. HAPPY mapping (an in vitro linkage technique based on screening approximatelyhaploid amounts of DNA by thepolymerase chain reaction) is ...

ABSTRACT Previous studies have shown that pathogen survival in the biological soil amendments of animal origin (BSAAO) is mediated by meteorological conditions. Hence, a 2‐year field study was conducted in Georgia with four soil amendment treatments (heat‐treated poultry pellets, HTPPs; composted poultry litter, PL; unamended, UN) inoculated with ...

Molecular characterization of Cryptosporidium isolates obtained from human immunodeficiency virus-infected individuals living in Switzerland, Kenya, and the United States. [PDF]
A total of 22 Cryptosporidium isolates from human immunodeficiency virus-infected patients from Kenya, Switzerland, and the United States were examined at three genetic loci: the 18S ribosomal DNA, HSP-70, and acetyl coenzyme A synthetase genes.

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?
This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.
