An improved electron microscopic technique for the immunolabeling of Cryptosporidium parvum oocysts.
A technique was developed for immunolabeling Cryptosporidium parvum oocysts for subsequent observation by transmission electron microscopy. This method was developed to maintain architectural integrity of the oocyst wall and improve fixation of internal contents. The improved fixation and embedding method permits efficient immunolabeling of both nonexcysted and excysted C. parvum oocysts and ma...
Biopsies from volunteers challenged with Cryptosporidium parvum were examined for transforming growth factor beta1 (TGF-beta1). None of the prechallenge biopsies exhibited TGF-beta. Seven of 12 volunteers with oocyst shedding expressed TGF-beta versus 2 of 13 volunteers without detected oocysts. The association of TGF-beta expression with oocyst excretion and the timing of symptoms suggests tha...
Among apicomplexan parasites, the coccidia and Cryptosporidium spp. are important pathogens of livestock and humans, and the environmentally resistant stage (oocyst) is essential for their transmission. Little is known of the chemical and molecular composition of the oocyst wall. Currently, the only parasite molecules shown to be involved in oocyst wall formation are the tyrosine-rich proteins ...
Coccidiosis, an enteric disease caused by Eimeria species, continues to be a substantial economic burden on the global poultry industry. With increased concerns regarding prophylactic antimicrobials to control coccidiosis alternate methods of preventative control have been developed, yet innovation to strengthen these methods has been limited. Live Eimeria vaccination stimulates immunity from t...
The ability of microorganisms to survive under extreme conditions is closely related to the physicochemical properties of their wall. In the ubiquitous protozoan parasite Toxoplasma gondii, the oocyst stage possesses a bilayered wall that protects the dormant but potentially infective parasites from harsh environmental conditions until their ingestion by the host. None of the common disinfectan...
The ability to determine inactivation rates of Cryptosporidium parvum oocysts in environmental samples is critical for assessing the public health hazard of this gastrointestinal parasite in watersheds. We compared a dye permeability assay, which tests the differential uptake of the fluorochromes 4'-6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) and propidium iodide (PI) by the oocysts (A. T. Campbell, L. J...
The coupled role of solution ionic strength (IS), hydrodynamic force, and pore structure on the transport and retention of viable Cryptosporidium parvum oocyst was investigated via batch, packed-bed column, and micromodel systems. The experiments were conducted over a wide range of IS (0.1-100 mM), at two Darcy velocities (0.2 and 0.5 cm/min), and in two sands (median diameters of 275 and 710 m...
faecal samples from 291 dairy calves from 10 dairy herds in kerman were examined to investigate theprevalence of cryptosporidium infection. cryptosporidium spp. oocysts were identified by using themodified ziehl-neelsen staining technique in 63 (21.65%) calves. calves were grouped according to theirage as follows:
Sporoblast and sporozoite formation from oocysts of the avian malarial parasite, Plasmodium gallinaceum, after the seventh day of infection in Aedes aegypti mosquitoes offers an interesting example of differentiation involving the appearance and modification of several cellular components. Sporoblast formation is preceded by (a) invaginations of the oocyst capsule into the oocyst cytoplasm, (b)...
Abundance of intestinal parasites was monitored by fecal egg and oocyst counts for samples of wild rabbits Oryctolagus cuniculus with different levels of imposed female sterility from 12 populations in southwestern Australia. Differences in egg counts of Trichostrongylus retortaeformis between seasons and age groups were dependent on the sex of the host. Pregnancy may have been responsible for ...
