Medical prospects of cryptosporidiosis control using biofabricated nanoparticles loaded with extracts by .

Background And Aim: Global efforts are continuing to develop preparations against cryptosporidiosis. This study aimed to investigate the efficacy of biosynthesized loading oil extract on new zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnONPs shorten to ZnNPs) and silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) as alternative treatments for experimental infection in rats.

Materials And Methods: Oil extract was characterized by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, loaded by on ionic-based ZnO and NPs, and then characterized by transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and X-ray diffraction.

The clinical impact of antimicrobial resistance genomics in competition with she-camels recurrent mastitis metabolomics due to heterogeneous field isolates.

Background And Aim: Recently, cases of mastitis refractory to treatment have been reported frequently. There are limited routine laboratory investigations on Camelidae infections. Mastitis has been estimated to affect more than 25% of lactating she-camel with up to 70% milk loss.

Molecular identification and genetic diversity among Photorhabdus and Xenorhabdus isolates.

Five bacterial strains were isolated from the hemocoel of the greater wax moth larvae (Galleria mellonella) infected with the entomopathogenic nematodes: Heterorhabditis bacteriophora HP88, Heterorhabditis indicus RM1 and Heterorhabditis sp (S1), Steinernema abbasi and Steinernema sp. (S II). Strains were identified as Photorhabdus luminescens HRM1, P.

Morphological and molecular identification of the brown dog tick and the camel tick (Acari: Ixodidae) vectors of Rickettsioses in Egypt.

Aim: Rickettsioses have an epidemiological importance that includes pathogens, vectors, and hosts. The dog tick and the camel tick play important roles as vectors and reservoirs of Rickettsiae. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of Rickettsiae in ixodid ticks species infesting dogs and camels in Egypt, in addition to, the morphological and molecular identification of and .

Scanning electron microscopy and morphometrics of nymph and larva of the tick Hyalomma rufipes Koch, 1844 (Acari: Ixodidae).

The genus Hyalomma comprises the most ixodid tick species that parasitize camels in Egypt. Although the immature stages of tick species play an important role in distribution of ticks and tick-borne diseases, the identification depends mainly on the adult stage. Therefore, this study tries to identify the specific characteristics of both nymph and larva of Hyalomma rufipes Koch, 1844 using scanning electron microscopy and morphometric analysis in order to differentiate them easily from those of other Hyalomma spp.

Molecular detection of spotted fever group rickettsiae associated with ixodid ticks in Egypt.

Tick-borne diseases comprise a complex epidemiological and ecological network that connects the vectors, pathogens, and a group of host species. The aim of this study was to identify bacteria from the genus Rickettsia associated with ixodid ticks infesting camels and cows in Egypt. Ticks were collected from 6 different localities: Qina, Giza, Qalet El Nakhl, New Valley, El Arish, and Minufia, from July to October 2008.
