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 ...

Antibody and cytokine response to Cystoisospora suis infections in immune-competent young pigs [PDF]

Parasites & Vectors, 2018
Background To date, investigations on the immune response to Cystoisospora suis infections focused on suckling piglets, the age group clinically most affected.

Treatment With Probiotic Bacteria Does Not Diminish the Impact of a Cystoisospora suis Challenge in Suckling Piglets [PDF]

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2018
Colonization of newborn piglets with beneficial and ubiquitous microorganisms in combination with colostral passive immunity is the prerequisite for development of immunity and gut maturation.

Detection of Cystoisospora suis in faeces of suckling piglets – when and how? A comparison of methods [PDF]

Porcine Health Management, 2018
Background Cystoisospora suis is the causative agent of porcine neonatal coccidiosis, a diarrheal disease which affects suckling piglets in the first weeks of life.

Deciphering the code of resistance: a genomic and transcriptomic exploration of the Cystoisospora suis Holland-I strain [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Cystoisospora 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.

Assessment of sponge sampling for real-time PCR detection of Cystoisospora suis from environmental and faecal samples from piglet-producing farms [PDF]

Porcine Health Management
Background Cystoisospora suis (C. suis) infects piglets in their first week of life and can subsequently lead to diarrhoea and production losses. The detection of C.

Rotavirus and Cystoisospora suis in piglets during the suckling and early post weaning period, in systems with solid floors and age segregated rearing [PDF]

Porcine Health Management, 2019
Background Piglet diarrhoea is considered a worldwide problem resulting in animal welfare problems and financial losses for pig farmers. Porcine rotavirus and the coccidian parasite Cystoisospora suis (C.

The genome of the protozoan parasite Cystoisospora suis and a reverse vaccinology approach to identify vaccine candidates. [PDF]

Int J Parasitol, 2017
Vaccine development targeting protozoan parasites remains challenging, partly due to the complex interactions between these eukaryotes and the host immune system.

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 ...
