| multilocus typing of cryptosporidium spp. and giardia duodenalis from non-human primates in china. | non-human primates (nhps) are commonly infected with cryptosporidium spp. and giardia duodenalis. however, molecular characterisation of these pathogens from nhps remains scarce. in this study, 2,660 specimens from 26 nhp species in china were examined and characterised by pcr amplification of 18s rrna, 70kda heat shock protein (hsp70) and 60kda glycoprotein (gp60) gene loci for cryptosporidium; and 1,386 of the specimens by ssrrna, triosephosphate isomerase (tpi) and glutamate dehydrogenase (gd ... | 2014 | 25148945 |
| occurrence of human-pathogenic enterocytozoon bieneusi, giardia duodenalis and cryptosporidium genotypes in laboratory macaques in guangxi, china. | captive nonhuman primates have been identified as common hosts of enterocytozoon bieneusi, giardia duodenalis, cryptosporidium hominis, and cyclospora spp., thus are potential reservoirs of some enteric parasites in humans. however, few studies have examined the source and human-infective potential of enteric parasites in laboratory nonhuman primates. in the present work, 205 fecal specimens were collected from three groups of captive macaca fascicularis kept in different densities in a laborato ... | 2014 | 24157444 |
