Electrochemical and AFM Characterization of G‐Quadruplex Electrochemical Biosensors and Applications
Guanine‐rich DNA sequences are able to form G‐quadruplexes, being involved in important biological processes and representing smart self‐assembling nanomaterials that are increasingly used in DNA nanotechnology and biosensor technology. G‐quadruplex electrochemical biosensors have received particular attention, since the electrochemical response is ...

Epidemiology of Enterocytozoon bieneusi Infection in Humans
A review was conducted to examine published works that focus on the complex epidemiology of Enterocytozoon bieneusi infection in humans. Studies on the prevalence of these emerging microsporidian pathogens in humans, in developed and developing countries, the different clinical spectra of E.

The epizootiology of pebrine, one of the great scourges of sericulture [PDF]
The pathogen of pebrine is transmitted to a host either vertically or horizontally. Vertical transmission may arise in two distinct ways depending upon whether the passage of the pathogen occurs on the surface of the egg or within the ovary of the mother moth. Horizontal transmission occurs only in the larval stage.

Phagocytic Uptake of Nosema bombycis (Microsporidia) Spores by Insect Cell Lines
Microsporidia are highly specialized obligate intracellular parasites that can infect a wide variety of animals ranging from protists to mammals. The classical concept of the parasite invasion into a host cell involves its polar tube acting as a needle ...

The smell of infection: Disease surveillance in insects using volatile organic compounds
Abstract Insects play crucial roles in nearly every ecosystem and provide a wide array of ecosystem services. However, both managed and wild insect populations face threats from parasites and pathogens, which require surveillance to mitigate. Current infectious disease surveillance methods for insects often involve invasive, time‐consuming and ...

Interactions between microsporidia and other members of the microbiome
Abstract The microbiome is the collection of microbes that are associated with a host. Microsporidia are intracellular eukaryotic parasites that can infect most types of animals. In the last decade, there has been much progress to define the relationship between microsporidia and the microbiome.

Genome evolution in intracellular parasites: Microsporidia and Apicomplexa
Abstract Microsporidia and Apicomplexa are eukaryotic, single‐celled, intracellular parasites with huge public health and economic importance. Typically, these parasites are studied separately, emphasizing their uniqueness and diversity. In this review, we explore the huge amount of genomic data that has recently become available for the two groups. We
