A cross-sectional survey of sp. and in non-human primates and their caregivers in Czech zoos.

Intestinal protists in the gut microbiome are increasingly studied, but their basic epidemiology is not well understood. We explored the prevalence, genetic diversity, and potential zoonotic transmission of two protists colonizing the large intestine - sp. and - in 37 species of non-human primates (NHPs) and their caregivers in six zoos in the Czech Republic.
