Cysticercosis raises the alarm for domestic rabbits since it has a significant impact on their health, productivity, and nutritional value. In this study, several white creamy- colored cysts were detected in the mesentery of the stomach and intestine, as well as embedded in the liver of domestic rabbits collected from Qena Governorate, Egypt. Based on both morphological and molecular assessments, revealed cysts could be identified as , the larval stage of .

The lessons learned from reviewing national risk assessments to modernise the Australian Standard for the post-mortem inspection and disposition judgement of beef, sheep, goat, and pig carcases are discussed. The initial risk profiles identified priorities for quantitative assessments. Broadly, the main difficulty encountered was the paucity of quantified performance for the current inspection.

Background: Cattle and buffaloes can contract cysticercosis, an infection of the muscles brought on by larvae. Despite having a global spread, cysticercosis is more prevalent in impoverished nations due to impaired hygiene standards. It has been discovered that cysticercosis routine visual diagnosis is not very effective, especially in mild infections.

Zoonotic metacestodes present a significant threat to both veterinary and public health. Specifically, the prevalence of metacestodes is often concentrated among consumers of raw meat and underdeveloped countries. The objective of this study was to estimate the prevalence of condemned red offal and examine the gross and histopathology features of zoonotic metacestodes.

Article Synopsis
- Human cysticercosis, caused by the parasite Taenia solium, is a significant health issue in specific regions of Latin America, Asia, and Sub-Saharan Africa, where diagnosing neurocysticercosis is challenging due to limited access to neuroimaging.
- Current serological tests like ELISA and Western blot are effective but costly, prompting the search for more affordable diagnostics, such as immunoassays using recombinant proteins.
- Researchers developed five recombinant proteins for testing, showing promise in diagnosing cysticercosis through ELISA, although performance needs enhancement; further studies are needed to assess their effectiveness in larger populations, particularly in remote areas with high epilepsy rates.
