Sporulation of Cyclospora sp. oocysts [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1997 Cyclospora sp. oocysts sporulated maximally at 22 and 30 degrees C for 14 days retarded sporulation. Up to 12% of human- and baboon-derived oocysts previously stored at 4 degrees C for 1 to 2 months sporulated when stored for 6 to 7 days at 30 degrees C.

Toxoplasma gondii Oocyst–specific Antibodies and Source of Infection
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2010 Infection source can determine cost-effective public health interventions. To quantify risk of acquiring Toxoplasma gondii from environmental sources versus from meat, we examined serum from pregnant women in Chile.

Cryopreservation of infectious Cryptosporidium parvum oocysts [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2018 Abstract Cryptosporidiosis in an enteric infection caused by Cryptosporidium parasites and is a major cause of acute infant diarrhea in the developing world. A major bottleneck to research progress is the lack of methods to cryopreserve Cryptosporidium

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1991 The mature ooxysts of six new species of Caryospora are described from the faeces of Brazilian snakes. They are differentiated from other species previously recorded from reptiles, largely on the size and shape of the oocyst and sporocyst, structure of ...

Calcium-Mediated Biophysical Binding of Cryptosporidium parvum Oocysts to Surfaces Is Sensitive to Oocyst Age [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2019 The mechanisms by which pathogens bind to surfaces are of interest to a wide variety of scientific communities, as these mechanisms drive infectivity, fate, and transport of the pathogenic organisms. This study begins to reveal the mechanism of direct binding of Cryptosporidium parvum to surfaces containing both ...

Dynamics of Toxoplasma gondii Oocyst Phagocytosis by Macrophages
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2020 Oocysts are the environmentally resistant stage of the protozoan parasite Toxoplasma gondii. They are responsible for foodborne infections in humans and animals worldwide.

Mathematical Modeling of Toxoplasmosis Considering a Time Delay in the Infectivity of Oocysts
Mathematics, 2022 In this paper, we study the effect of the introduction of a time delay on the dynamics of toxoplasmosis. This time delay is the elapsed time from when oocysts become present in the environment and when they become infectious.
