Gastrointestinal Parasites of Domestic Ducks (Anas platyrhynchos domesticus) in Kathmandu, Nepal
Gastrointestinal parasites in ducks raised on smallholder farms in Kathmandu, Nepal, are investigated using copromicroscopic examination. A diverse range of protozoa and helminth parasites are detected including the first records of Entamoeba spp., Cryptosporidium sp. and Tyzzeria sp. in ducks in Nepal.

Activities of several benzimidazoles and tubulin inhibitors against Giardia spp. in vitro [PDF]
Previous studies in our laboratory have shown that albendazole is effective against Giardia spp. in vitro and in vivo, prompting an investigation of the effects of several related benzimidazoles (BZs) on the viability of this protozoan parasite.

Proliferative Sparganosis Due to Spirometra mansoni in a Dog: A Detailed Diagnostic Picture
Innumerable small oval cystic structures were identified in the peritoneal cavity of a young dog presenting with abdominal distension and weight gain. A combination of diagnostics confirmed these structures as Spirometra mansoni plerocercoids and established a diagnosis of proliferative sparganosis.

Isoenzyme electrophoresis of 30 isolates of Giardia from humans and felines [PDF]
Thirty isolates of Giardia duodenalis from humans and felines were compared by isoenzyme electrophoresis. Using 10 enzyme systems, 13 different zymodemes were distinguished. The majority of zymodemes could be divided into two groups: one group comprising

When to consider an inborn error of immunity: clues for physicians
Abstract The term inborn errors of immunity (IEIs) refers to the rapidly expanding group of genetic disorders causing dysregulation of the immune system. With improved genetic testing in recent years, the number of defined IEIs and their range of phenotypic presentations has grown vastly, with more than 550 IEIs now described.

ABSTRACT Microbial communities entering wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) through untreated sewage represent an important interface between human, environmental, and treatment‐associated microbiomes, yet our understanding of their biogeography remains poorly resolved, particularly for microbial eukaryotes.

Genetic characterization of isolates of Giardia duodenalis by enzyme electrophoresis: Implications for reproductive biology, population structure, taxonomy, and epidemiology [PDF]
The nature and extent of genetic variation in Giardia was used to infer its mode of reproduction, population structure, taxonomy, and zoonotic potential. Ninety-seven isolates of Giardia duodenalis, from a defined area in Western Australia and throughout
