Genotype identification of Enterocytozoon bieneusi isolates from stool samples of HIV-infected Tunisian patients

Parasite, 2012
The microsporidian species Enterocytozoon bieneusi is a major cause of chronic diarrhea and malabsorption in patients with AIDS. Genotyping was performed on seven E. bieneusi strains for the first time in Tunisia. All the strains were isolated from stool

Novel zoonotic Enterocytozoon and Encephalitozoon genotypes in domestic pigeons (Columba livia domestica) in Iran: Public health implications

Current Research in Parasitology and Vector-Borne Diseases
To determine the occurrence of microsporidiosis in domestic pigeons in Iran, privately-owned pigeons presenting weight loss and diarrhea were tested through molecular and histopathological methods.

Molecular characterization of zoonotic isolates of Enterocytozoon bieneusi in Iran

, 2012
Background: Microsporidia infections occur in all invertebrate and vertebrate hosts. The most common microsporidia infecting humans and animals are Enterocytozoon bieneusi. This study aimed to characterize the zoonotic isolates of E.

Development of a Multilocus Sequence Typing Tool for High-Resolution Genotyping of Enterocytozoon bieneusi

, 2011
Thus far, genotyping of Enterocytozoon bieneusi has been based solely on DNA sequence analysis of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) of the rRNA gene. Both host-adapted and zoonotic (human-pathogenic) genotypes of E.

Global prevalence and risk factors of Enterocytozoon bieneusi infection in humans: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Parasite
Enterocytozoon bieneusi is one of the most important zoonotic pathogens. In this study, we present a systematic review and meta-analysis of the prevalence of human E. bieneusi infection in endemic regions and analyze the various potential risk factors. A

First detection of the microsporidium Enterocytozoon bieneusi in non-mammalian hosts (chickens)

, 2002
Faecal samples taken from eight underweight, approximately 5-week-old broiler chickens in a poultry abattoir were investigated for microsporidial infections by light microscopy, electron microscopy, and PCR.
