Assessment of genetic markers for multilocus sequence typing (MLST) of Fasciola isolates from Iran

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 9, Issue 2, Page 924-933, March 2023., 2023
MLST analysis was developed based on five genes (ND1, Pepck, Pold, Cyt b and HSP70) after genomic DNA extraction, amplification and sequencing. Thirty‐three Fasciola isolates (19 F. hepatica and 14 F. gigantica) were obtained from the infected livers (sheep n = 16, cattle n = 48 and goat n = 4) in Kermanshah Province, Iran.

Molecular Detection and Distribution of Giardia duodenalis and Cryptosporidium spp. Infections in Wild and Domestic Animals in Portugal

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
Enteric protozoan parasites Giardia duodenalis, Cryptosporidium spp., and, to a lesser extent, the ciliate Balantioides coli are responsible for severe human and animal intestinal disorders globally. However, limited information is available on the occurrence and epidemiology of these parasites in domestic, but especially wild species in Portugal.
