Eight Assemblage A strains from the protozoan parasite Giardia duodenalis were analysed using label-free quantitative shotgun proteomics, to evaluate inter- and intra-assemblage variation and complement available genetic and transcriptomic data. Isolates were grown in biological triplicate in axenic culture, and protein extracts were subjected to in-solution digest and online fractionation using Gas Phase Fractionation (GPF). Recent reclassification of genome databases for subassemblages was evaluated for database-dependent loss of information, and proteome composition of different isolates was analysed for biologically relevant assemblage-independent variation. The data from this study are related to the research article "Quantitative proteomics analysis of Giardia duodenalis Assemblage A - a baseline for host, assemblage and isolate variation" published in Proteomics (Emery et al., 2015 [1]).

is a major pathogen of the gastrointestinal tract, and infections impact both human health and the economy. The ongoing issues with drug resistance and the side effects of current anti- treatments highlight the urgent need for new therapeutic options. This study focused on investigating the efficacy of crude extracts of from Thailand against .

Giardia duodenalis is a widespread intestinal protozoan that affects mammals, including humans. Symptoms can range from being subclinical to causing severe abdominal pain and diarrhoea. Giardiasis often requires repeated treatment with synthetic drugs like metronidazole.

is a zoonotic parasite that causes gastrointestinal diseases in both humans and animals. To evaluate the prevalence and genetic diversity of in black goats, we collected 539 fecal samples from nine districts in Fujian Province, China. The presence of was confirmed through nested PCR targeting the SSU rRNA gene, and genotyping was performed at the beta-giardin, glutamate dehydrogenase, and triosephosphate isomerase loci.

Giardia duodenalis is a typical enteric protozoan pathogen that causes diarrhea in humans and various animals, including domestic pigs (Sus domesticus) and wild boars (Sus scrofa). A healthy livestock would help maintain a hygienic environment, which is crucial for human health. This review has summarized the molecular prevalence of G.
