Copromicroscopic Diagnosis and Prevalence of Intestinal Parasites in Humans and Nonhuman Primates That Share an Ecosystem in the State of Veracruz, Mexico

open access: yesJournal of Parasitology Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The expansion of human populations and their associated land use practices are contributing to the fragmentation of forest ecosystems, thereby impacting the habitats of wildlife, including nonhuman primates (NHPs). This increased proximity between humans and NHP, which share an ecosystem, creates opportunities for the transmission of gastrointestinal ...
