Interplay between and during In Vitro Infection of a Chicken Macrophage Cell Line (HD11).

Background: is a frequent intestinal pathogen of chickens, causing economic impact on the poultry industry. is a neglected parasite in chickens. However, because of its zoonotic potential, poultry cryptosporidiosis may pose a risk to public health.

In vitro infection of Madin-Darby bovine kidney (MDBK) cells with Eimeria acervulina sporozoites: quantitative analysis of parasite cellular invasion and replication using real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR).

Poultry coccidiosis causes considerable economical losses to the livestock industry. Eimeria parasites are responsible for this disease. On a global scale, E.

A SYBR green I real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay for detection and quantification of Trichomonas gallinae.

Trichomonas gallinae are parasitic flagellates of importance in wild and domestic birds. The parasite is worldwide distributed, and Columbine birds are its main host. Current research focuses mostly on epidemiological and phylogenetic studies.

A modified method for purification of Eimeria tenella sporozoites.

Coccidiosis is an economically important gastrointestinal disease in domestic fowl. Eimeria species are the causative agents of avian coccidiosis. Current challenges in management and prevention of eimeriosis enhance the need for research in this field.

Molecular characterization of bovine Cryptosporidium isolated from diarrheic calves in the Sudan.

Cryptosporidiosis is a common protozoan infection causing morbidity and mortality in young cattle and may be zoonotically transmitted to humans. So far, there is no data available on the presence of Cryptosporidium spp. in the Sudan.
