Deciphering the epidemiological dynamics: seroprevalence in mainland China's food animals, 2010-2023.

Background: () is a significant protozoan pathogen among food animals. Despite the threat to public health by infections, there's limited understanding of its seroprevalence and trends in food animals across mainland China. This study aimed to estimate the seroprevalence of infections among swine, sheep, goats, chickens, and cattle in mainland China from 2010 to 2023.

Direct evidence of cheetah (Acinonyx jubatus) as intermediate host of Toxoplasma gondii through isolation of viable strains.

Toxoplasma gondii causes lifelong infection in most definitive and intermediate hosts. Clinical cases of toxoplasmosis in captive cheetahs have been reported. However, there are few reports of viable T.

Isolation and Genetic Characterization of from a Patas Monkey () in China.

Many cases of infection have been reported worldwide in non-human primates (NHPs), especially in captive New World monkeys. However, few studies on toxoplasmosis in Old World monkeys have been conducted. In this study, serological and molecular biological analyses were carried out to look for antibodies and infection in 13 NHPs from China.

Epidemiology and isolation of viable strain from macropods.

Wallabies and other marsupials are highly susceptible to . In this study, 26 macropod samples were collected (8 red kangaroos, 4 Parma wallabies, 8 red-necked wallabies, 5 albino red-necked wallabies and 1 Eastern grey kangaroo), including tissue (n = 9) and serum (n = 17) samples. According to the modified agglutination test (MAT) results (cutoff 1:25), 50% (95% Cl: 32.

Additional evidence of tigers () as intermediate hosts for through the isolation of viable strains.

Toxoplasmosis is one of the most common zoonotic diseases in the world. Felines excrete oocysts, which play a key role in the transmission of this protozoon. Pathological diagnoses were performed on four carcasses of captive tigers collected from 2019 to 2021 in China, and was surveyed using serology, molecular analysis, and aetiology.

Two viable Toxoplasma gondii isolates from red-necked wallaby (Macropus rufogriseus) and red kangaroo (M. rufus).

Wallabies and kangaroos are susceptible to Toxoplasma gondii. However, little information concerning T. gondii infection in captive macropods is available.

Low Prevalence of in Dogs From Central China.

Background: can infect almost all warm-blooded animals, including humans and dogs. Humans can become infected with by petting dogs that have eaten or contacted infected cat feces. The aim of this study was to evaluate infections in dogs from central China.

First Report of in a Captive Alpaca () From China.

Sarcocystosis is a parasitic disease caused by intracellular protozoan parasite of the genus . Tissue samples of alpacas ( = 4) from Henan province (China) were screened for spp. infection by histological examination, pepsin digestion, and molecular assays.

Isolation, genotyping and virulence determination of a Toxoplasma gondii strain from non-human primate from China.

Toxoplasma gondii infects almost all warm-blooded animals, including humans and non-human primates. Many cases of T. gondii infection in non-human primates have been reported worldwide.
