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.

SUMMARYFilariae of animals, especially those of mammals, often infect humans and typically produce cryptic infections. These “zoonotic” infections have been reported from virtually all parts of the world including temperate zones. Infections may be symptomatic or not, and the parasites are found in surgical tissue biopsy specimens or, more rarely, are ...

Zoonotic cryptosporidiosis [PDF]
The widespread usages of molecular epidemiological tools have improved the understanding of cryptosporidiosis transmission. Much attention on zoonotic cryptosporidiosis is centered on Cryptosporidium parvum. Results of genotype surveys indicate that calves are the only major reservoir for C. parvum infections in humans. The widespread presence of human-

Double zoonotic peritonitis [PDF]
Peritonitis continues to be a major problem for peritoneal dialysis patients. The incidence of peritonitis has decreased in recent decades but uncommon organisms are inceasingly being reported.We report an 83 year old man with history of diabetes mellitus, arterial hypertension, coronary artery disease and end stage renal disease on peritoneal dialysis,

Determinants of Childhood Zoonotic Enteric Infections in a Semirural Community of Quito, Ecuador. [PDF]
Domestic animals in the household environment have the potential to affect a child's carriage of zoonotic enteric pathogens and risk of diarrhea. This study examines the risk factors associated with pediatric diarrhea and carriage of zoonotic enteric ...

Zoonotic enteric protozoa [PDF]
A growing number of enteric protozoan species are considered to have zoonotic potential. Their clinical impact varies and in many cases is poorly defined. Similarly, the epidemiology of infections, particularly the role of non-human hosts, requires further study.

Zoonotic and Reverse Zoonotic Transmissibility of SARS-CoV-2
The Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) is the first known pandemic caused by a coronavirus. Its causative agent, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), appears to be capable of infecting different mammalian species. Recent detections of this virus in pet, zoo, wild, and farm animals have compelled inquiry regarding the zoonotic (

(Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) Poxviruses compromise a group of long known important pathogens including some zoonotic members affecting lifestock animals and humans. While whole genome sequence analysis started to shed light into the molecular mechanisms underlying host cell infection, viral replication as well as virulence, our ...

Zoonosis emergence linked to agricultural intensification and environmental change [PDF]
A systematic review was conducted by a multidisciplinary team to analyze qualitatively best available scientific evidence on the effect of agricultural intensification and environmental changes on the risk of zoonoses for which there are epidemiological ...
