Validation and use of the dead‐end ultrafiltration method for the capture and recovery of Shiga toxin‐producing Escherichia coli from surface water

Journal of Environmental Quality, Volume 54, Issue 5, Page 1152-1162, September/October 2025.
Abstract Root cause analysis following microbial water contamination events typically relies upon the collection of large sample volumes. Dead‐end ultrafiltration (DEUF) is an efficient method for sampling and transporting up to 100 L of water from field environments. A single‐lab validation (SLV) using DEUF to recover Shiga toxin‐producing Escherichia

Aspects of Genetic Diversity, Host Specificity and Public Health Significance of Single‐Celled Intestinal Parasites Commonly Observed in Humans and Mostly Referred to as ‘Non‐Pathogenic’

APMIS, Volume 133, Issue 9, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Clinical microbiology involves the detection and differentiation of primarily bacteria, viruses, parasites and fungi in patients with infections. Billions of people may be colonised by one or more species of common luminal intestinal parasitic protists (CLIPPs) that are often detected in clinical microbiology laboratories; still, our knowledge

Prolonged Fever in Children: An Inpatient Diagnostic Framework for Infections in Australia

Journal of Paediatrics and Child Health, Volume 61, Issue 4, Page 532-539, April 2025.
ABSTRACT There are many causes of fever in children, ranging from common and self‐limiting to serious and life threatening. Careful assessment of children with prolonged fever without an obvious or identified source requires detailed history and examination with consideration of infections unique to the specific geographical region and individual ...

Sporulation of Cyclospora sp. oocysts [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1997
Cyclospora sp. oocysts sporulated maximally at 22 and 30 degrees C for 14 days retarded sporulation. Up to 12% of human- and baboon-derived oocysts previously stored at 4 degrees C for 1 to 2 months sporulated when stored for 6 to 7 days at 30 degrees C.

Toxoplasma replication is inhibited by MMV676477 without development of resistance

Cytoskeleton, Volume 82, Issue 1-2, Page 5-11, January‐February 2025.
Abstract Protozoan parasites cause life‐threatening infections in both humans and animals, including agriculturally significant livestock. Available treatments are typically narrow spectrum and are complicated by drug toxicity and the development of resistant parasites.
