Sarcocystis spp. detection in cattle using different diagnostic methods [PDF]

Pesquisa Veterinária Brasileira, 2023
: Cattle are considered intermediate hosts of Sarcocystis, which can cause clinical signs and lower performance in the acute phase of infection. Sarcocystis spp. are usually not visible to the naked eye during the post mortem inspection.

Zoonotic Sarcocystis [PDF]

Research in Veterinary Science, 2021
Apicomplexan species in the genus Sarcocystis form tissue cysts, in their intermediate hosts, similar to those established in chronic toxoplasmosis. More than 200 species are known, but just a few are known to threaten human health owing to infection in livestock species.
