Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 5, September 2026.This study provides the first global systematic synthesis of Cryptosporidium spp. infection in snakes. A pooled prevalence of 12.6% was identified, with higher occurrence in captive‐associated populations than in wild snakes. Eight Cryptosporidium species, including multiple zoonotic taxa, were reported, underscoring the potential role of snakes within

Nanoparticle Lysis of Cryptosporidium Oocysts
Methods and ProtocolsThe extraction of DNA from Cryptosporidium oocysts is challenging due to the robust oocyst wall. Nanoparticles have been applied to disinfect Cryptosporidium oocysts; here, we demonstrate the utilisation of nanoparticles to disrupt the oocyst wall to enable sporozoite lysis and detection via PCR.

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 5, September 2026.Our study showed that challenging broiler chickens with Clostridium perfringens reduced performance and increased mortality. Conversely, supplementing the diet with additives, such as chelated zinc, chelated copper and probiotics, helped mitigate the negative effects of C. perfringens.

A Review on Heat Stress in Broiler Chickens: Mechanisms, Effects and Mitigation Strategies
Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 5, September 2026.Heat stress caused by high temperature and humidity compromises broiler health, welfare, and productivity by reducing feed intake, growth performance, and feed efficiency, while increasing mortality, oxidative stress, metabolic disturbances, intestinal dysfunction, gut dysbiosis, immune suppression, and meat quality deterioration.

Water Environment Research, Volume 98, Issue 9, September 2026.Acute diarrheal disease rates are associated with seasonality and the type of water supply system. ABSTRACT Acute diarrheal disease (ADD) remains a major public health problem in low‐ and middle‐income countries, where vulnerabilities in water supply systems (WSSs) are associated with increased exposure to disease.

Cryptosporidium volunteer study: Estimating oocyst burden in waste water
, 2014 Cryptosporidium infections cause diarrheal illness in humans and chronic disease in immunocompromised individuals. Some infections can lead to community outbreaks from secondary transmission.
