Detection of Plasmodium spp. in Human Feces
Comparison of diagnostic methods for Plasmodium spp. in humans from Uganda and the Central African Republic showed that parasites can be efficiently detected by PCR in fecal samples. These results, which rely solely on PCR-based examination of feces, validate numerous estimates of the prevalence of malaria in great apes.
متن کاملDivergent Picobirnaviruses in Human Feces
The near-complete genomes of two picobirnaviruses (PBVs) in diarrheal stool samples, human picobirnaviruses D and E (HuPBV-D and -E), were genetically characterized. Their RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) protein sequences had <66% identities to known PBVs. Due to a single nucleotide insertion, the open reading frame 2 (ORF2) in segment 1 of HuPBV-D was interrupted by a stop codon. A small s...
متن کاملTransmission and detection of prions in feces.
In chronic wasting disease (CWD) in cervids and in scrapie in sheep, prions appear to be transmitted horizontally. Oral exposure to prion-tainted blood, urine, saliva, and feces has been suggested as the mode of transmission of CWD and scrapie among herbivores susceptible to these prion diseases. To explore the transmission of prions through feces, uninoculated Syrian hamsters (SHas) were cohab...
متن کاملDetermination of plutonium in human feces.
The toxic effects of plutonium on the human body depend on a considerable number of physical and biological factors. One of the most important biological factors is the rate of elimination of plutonium from the body. The ratio of fecal to urinary excretion of plutonium by the rat is of the order of 10: 1. This is, indeed, a favorable ratio. Preliminary information, however, indicates that the e...
متن کاملCryptosporidium antigen detection in human feces by reverse passive hemagglutination assay.
A reverse passive hemagglutination (RPH) assay was developed for Cryptosporidium oocyst antigen with an antioocyst monoclonal antibody (MAb; MAb-C1) coupled to stabilized sheep erythrocytes. RPH was compared with microscopy of auramine-phenol-stained smears of 56 oocyst-positive fecal samples, each of which was tested blindly by RPH with two oocyst-negative samples received on the same day (a t...
