Coccidiosis is one of the most economically important diseases for the poultry industry, with an estimated annual global loss of over 3 billion dollars. Seven species of Eimeria infect domestic chickens: Eimeria acervulina, Eimeria brunetti, Eimeria mitis, Eimeria maxima, Eimeria necatrix, Eimeria praecox, and Eimeria tenella. However, the classification of three new species, Eimeria lata…
Coccidiosis, a disease caused by protozoa of the genus Eimeria, is one of the most economically important diseases for the poultry industry. Seven species of Eimeria infect the domestic fowl (E. acervulina, E. praecox, E. mitis, E. maxima, E. necatrix, E. brunetti, and E. tenella). In addition, three genetic variants, named operational taxonomic units (OTUs x, y and z) were recently detec…
Protozoa of the genus Cryptosporidium belong to the phylum Apicomplexa, class Gregarinomorphea, present epicellular localization in the mucosal epithelia, particularly the gastrointestinal tract and, occasionally, also infect the respiratory, biliary and urinary tract, causing clinical and subclinical disease in vertebrates. Several Cryptosporidium species and genotypes are zoonotic. For …
Cryptosporidiosis has already been described in many animal species, including amphibians, birds, mammals, fishes and reptiles. Human infection has been described in more than 90 countries from six continents. Even there is no consensus about the definitive classification for Cryptosporidium species, some authors suggest that there are, at least, 27 valid species. This study aims to deter…

The objective of this study is to perform the identification and molecular characterization of Eimeria zaria in domestic chickens raised in alternative production systems, not vaccinated against coccidiosis. DNA samples previously positive for E. zaria originated from 17 municipalities in the state of São Paulo. The samples will be subjected to two species-specific PCR protocols for E. za…

Cryptosporidium spp. are intracellular protozoan parasites that infect the epithelial cells of digestive and respiratory tracts of a wide variety of vertebrates. This parasite may cause self-limiting diarrheal illness in immunocompetent individuals, but in immunocompromised patients it may be fatal. Cryptosporidium parvum has many animal hosts and it is one of the dominant Cryptosporidium…

Cryptosporidium cuniculus was originally detected in rabbits and it has been identified as a human pathogen. However, the incidence, prevalence, and epidemiology of cryptosporidiosis due to C. cuniculus in rabbits and in human populations are still poorly studied. As the identification of C. cuniculus can be time consuming and expensive using the existing molecular assays, such as nested …
