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

Multilocus Sequence Typing Tool forCyclospora cayetanensis [PDF]
Because the lack of typing tools for Cyclospora cayetanensis has hampered outbreak investigations, we sequenced its genome and developed a genotyping tool. We observed 2 to 10 geographically segregated sequence types at each of 5 selected loci. This new tool could be useful for case linkage and infection/contamination source tracking.

Cyclospora: An Enigma Worth Unraveling
In part, Cyclospora cayetanensis owes its recognition as an emerging pathogen to the increased use of staining methods for detecting enteric parasites such as Cryptosporidium. First reported in patients in New Guinea in 1977 but thought to be a coccidian

Intestinal parasites pose a risk to public health globally, causing a high economic burden in developing countries. Most diagnostic methods aimed at detecting these parasites in hospital settings are not sensitive to recovering parasites. Hence, the prevalence of these diseases remains a challenge in areas of poor environmental sanitation and ...

Cockroaches as Mechanical Vectors of Intestinal Parasites in Sana’a City, Yemen
This study investigated the role of cockroaches, Periplaneta americana, and Blattella germanica species as mechanical vector hosts for intestinal parasites in Sana’a City, Yemen, from May to August 2022. Three hundred sixty‐five cockroach samples were systematically collected from various sites, including markets, garbage disposal areas, and butcher ...
