Shifts in the Fecal Microbial Community of Cystoisospora suis Infected Piglets in Response to Toltrazuril [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020 The protozoan parasite Cystoisospora suis causes diarrhea and reduced weight gain in suckling piglets. Infections occur in the first days of life; it is transient but can lead to dysbiosis, exacerbating disease and increasing mortality.

Experimentally confirmed toltrazuril resistance in a field isolate of Cystoisospora suis [PDF]
Parasites & Vectors, 2017 Background Constant treatment regimens with toltrazuril against Cystoisospora suis infection in piglets are being applied in the intensive production systems for the last two decades, but the possibility of resistance development has not been addressed ...

Deciphering the code of resistance: a genomic and transcriptomic exploration of the Cystoisospora suis Holland-I strain [PDF]
Scientific ReportsCystoisospora suis, a member of the apicomplexan order Coccidia and causative agent of neonatal porcine coccidiosis, poses a challenge to pig production due to the emergence of reduced efficacy of toltrazuril, the only EU-approved treatment.

Prevalencia de Cystoisospora suis en lechones lactantes y cerdas en Venezuela [PDF]
Revista de Investigaciones Veterinarias del Perú, 2018 The prevalence of Cystoisospora suis in lactating piglets and their dams in pig farms in the central region of Venezuela was determined. The study was conducted in farms of three sizes with a history of neonatal diarrhea: small (<150 sows), medium ...
