Faecal samples were collected directly after defecation from living Egyptian deer, Dorcas gazelles. 28 out of 63 (44.44 %) faecal samples harboured gastrointestinal nematode eggs. The positive faecal samples were cultured to collect the infective third stage larvae (L3) for taxonomic identification. They were Trichostrongylus colubriformis, Ostertagia ostertatgi and Oeseophagostomum venalosum.

Damage to the intestinal mucosal barrier and dysbiosis of the gut microbiota are critical factors in HIV progression, reciprocally influencing each other. Besides bacteria, the fungal microbiota, a significant component of the gut, plays a pivotal role in this dysregulation. This study aims to investigate changes in the gut mucosal barrier and mycobiota during the initial stages of HIV infection, focusing on the involvement of intestinal fungi and their secretions in mucosal damage.

Background: Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a silent pandemic causing 1.27 million deaths in 2019, disproportionately affecting low- and middle-income countries, but resistance among commensal microbiota and the determinants of carriage have not been widely reported. This cross-sectional household study aimed to determine the prevalence of carbapenem-resistant (CRE) and third-generation cephalosporin-resistant Enterobacterale (C3GRE) in a rural community in Ha Nam northern Vietnam, as well as the socio-demographic, behavioural, and environmental determinants of carriage.

Introduction: () is a Gram-negative opportunistic pathogen, whose increasing virulence and antibiotic resistance negatively impact dairy cow health and productivity, raising concerns in livestock health management. To mitigate this risk, rapid and reliable diagnostic methods for detection are essential. Currently, detection methods for are underdeveloped, prompting us to develop both pathogenic and serological detection methods, including an optimized PCR technique and an indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (I-ELISA).

Comparing the diversity of gut microbiota between and within social insect colonies can illustrate interactions between bacterial community composition and host behaviour. In many eusocial insect species, different workers exhibit different task behaviours. Evidence of compositional differences between core microbiota in different worker types could suggest a microbial association with the division of labour among workers.

Background: Coccidia are among the primary pathogens causing diarrhea and even fatalities in lambs. With the increasing use of chemical drugs to treat coccidiosis, the problem of drug resistance is becoming more and more threatening. Therefore, there is an urgent need to identify novel alternative drugs for the treatment of the lamb coccidia.
