Cystoisospora belli and Sarcocystis spp.

2018
Cystoisospora and Sarcocystis are coccidian parasites that can be acquired through food or waterborne transmission. Cystoisospora is more frequently found in immunocompromised patients in developing countries causing gastrointestinal illness. Sarcocystis infections can have two presentations linked with either muscular or intestinal infections ...

Molecular characterization of Sarcocystis spp. in seabirds from southern Brazil

Parasitology International, 2022
Sarcocystis spp. are cyst forming apicomplexan parasites that infect many vertebrates including birds. Sarcocystis spp. infection was investigated in tissue samples (pectoral muscles, heart, and brain) of 47 dead seabirds collected from the coastline of Santa Catarina State SC - Brazil, between August 2019 and March 2020.

Frequency of Sarcocystis spp in Detroit, Metropolitan Area, Michigan

American Journal of Veterinary Research, 1975
SUMMARY A survey of Sarcocystis spp in feral animals and in domesticated animals slaughtered in Detroit, MI, was undertaken during a 6-month period, April to September, 1973, using histologic and digestion diagnostic techniques. Results indicated 75.3% of 789 sheep and 10.8% of 306 lambs were infected.

Possibility of Vertical Transmission of Sarcocystis spp. in Sika Deer in Japan

Foodborne pathogens and disease
In recent years, the wild deer population in Japan has grown exponentially, causing severe feeding damage to the agricultural and forestry industries. Therefore, the game meat industry is being promoted for effective utilization of hunted animals.

Different Sarcocystis spp. are present in bovine eosinophilic myositis

Veterinary Parasitology, 2013
It has been suggested that Sarcocystis species are associated with bovine eosinophilic myositis (BEM). To date, parasite identification in this myopathy has been based on morphological techniques. The aim of the present study was to use molecular techniques to identify Sarcocystis species inside lesions of BEM.

Sarcocystis neurona and Neospora caninum in Brazilian opossums (Didelphis spp.): Molecular investigation and in vitro isolation of Sarcocystis spp.

Veterinary Parasitology, 2017
Sarcocystis neurona and Neospora spp. are protozoan parasites that induce neurological diseases in horses and other animal species. Opossums (Didelphis albiventris and Didelphis virginiana) are definitive hosts of S. neurona, which is the major cause of equine protozoal myeloencephalitis (EPM).

Prevalence of Sarcocystis spp. in water buffaloes in Vietnam

Veterinary Parasitology, 1999
Muscles from heart, tongue, oesophagus, neck and abdomen from 502 adult water buffaloes (Bubalus bubalis) slaughtered in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, between 1996 and 1997 were examined for Sarcocystis cysts by a combination of ocular and histological examination.

Prevalence of Sarcocystis spp. in meat-producing ruminants in Kashan, Central Iran.

Nigerian Journal of Parasitology
Sarcocystis is one of the most prevalent protozoan parasites that infect many domestic and wild animals worldwide. Ruminants as one of the sources of meat products for the human are exposed to contamination with these parasites.

The prevalence of Sarcocystis spp in dogs and red foxes

Veterinary Record, 1978
Protozoan parasites of the genus Sarcocystis have been recognised for many years as intramuscular cysts of numerous vertebrates. It is only comparatively recently that the two-host nature of the life cycle has been recognised and that the intramuscular cysts are a stage in the developmental cycle of coccidian parasites of flesh eating mammals (Fayer ...
