Comparative assessment of immunochromatographic test kits using low-molecular-weight antigens from cyst fluids of two different genotypes of Taenia solium for serodiagnosis of human cysticercosis
Human cysticercosis is a serious zoonosis caused by infection with larvae (cysticerci) of the pork tapeworm, Taenia solium. Infection can involve the nervous system, causing chronic headache and intracranial hypertension, focal neurological deficits, epileptic seizures, and paralysis. The disease…

Immunological surveillance using anti-gSG6-P1 IgG biomarker reveals spatio-temporal dynamics of Anopheles exposure and gaps in malaria risk assessment in the Greater Mekong Subregion
Entomological parameters such as mosquito biting rates often fail to capture variability in human behavior, thereby limiting its accuracy for assessing the population-level malaria risk. This study investigated the use of previously described Anopheles gambiae-based anti-salivary biomarker…

Parasitology at the heart of the “One Health” concept: a longstanding alliance illustrated by cysticercosis control
The “One Health” concept, emphasizing the interdependence of human, animal, and ecosystem health, has gained renewed global attention and institutional support from the World Health Organization, Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, United Nations Environment Program, and World…

Phenotypic changes in natural populations of Anopheles gambiae s.l. at the onset of the long dry season in tropical savannahs of Burkina Faso, West Africa
In the tropical savannahs with long dry seasons, malaria mosquito populations virtually disappear after the drying up of breeding sites to reappear in large numbers at the onset of next rainy season. While aestivation and long-distance migration are proposed as key strategies enabling these vectors…

Evaluation of OvaCyte for the detection of gastrointestinal parasites in ovine and bovine animals: comparison with traditional flotation techniques
This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic and analytical performance of OvaCyte, an automated image-based system for the detection of gastrointestinal parasites in ruminants, against traditional flotation techniques. OvaCyte is available in two versions: OvaCyte Plus, which automates egg…

Fasciolosis, a foodborne zoonotic trematode infection in cattle in Bangladesh: multifaceted validation of parthenogenecity and anthelmintic efficacy
Parthenogenic Fasciola (Trematoda: Fasciolidae) flukes have been developed by the hybridization of Fasciola hepatica and Fasciola gigantica. They are aspermic (asF) but capable of clonal expansion through parthenogenesis and are spreading rapidly throughout the globe. Here, we unambiguously prove…

Diversity and abundance of Culicoides on goat and cattle farms in the southern part of the Republic of Korea
Biting midges of the genus Culicoides Latreille (Ceratopogonidae) pose a significant threat to veterinary health as vectors of over 60 viruses, most of which affect livestock. In this study, we used light traps to sample Culicoides populations on cattle and goat farms from May to October 2023 at 15…

Another host, another mystery: Infection of polychaete Pista palmata (Annelida: Terebellidae) with a new blood fluke (Digenea: Aporocotylidae) in the coastal Northwest Atlantic Ocean
Terebelliform annelids can serve as intermediate hosts for blood flukes of marine fishes and sea turtles. The scarcity of global reports on the life cycles of these parasites reflects the need for further exploration. Our objective was to further our knowledge of the diversity and life cycles of…

Low genetic polymorphism of the PvMSP1-19 vaccine candidate among Plasmodium vivax isolates along the Thailand–Myanmar border
Plasmodium vivax remains the predominant malaria species in Thailand, accounting for approximately 97% of all reported cases, with transmission persisting in endemic border regions such as Kanchanaburi Province along the Thailand–Myanmar border. The C-terminal 19-kDa fragment of merozoite surface…

First documented cases of equine leishmaniasis caused by Leishmania (Mundinia) martiniquensis in France
In this study, we describe the first documented cases of equine cutaneous leishmaniasis caused by Leishmania (Mundinia) martiniquensis in France and provide clinical and parasitological data relevant for the recognition of this emerging infection in horses. Three horses presenting localized…

Zoonotic cutaneous leishmaniasis caused by Leishmania major: Do humans play a role in amplifying transmission?
Zoonotic cutaneous leishmaniasis (ZCL) caused by Leishmania (L.) major is the most widespread form of CL worldwide, with hundreds of thousands of cases annually. It is associated with significant morbidity and economic burden, particularly in North Africa and the Middle East. For over a century…

Prevalence and risk factors of human trichostrongylosis in Satun, southern Thailand
Trichostrongylus spp., zoonotic soil-transmitted nematodes, affect both livestock and humans globally. In Thailand, human trichostrongylosis has been reported, but no systematic study examining livestock and humans in the same locality has been conducted. This study aimed to address this gap in…

An integrative assessment of Dactylosoma cf. ranarum (Apicomplexa: Dactylosomatidae) from Pelophylax water frogs
While various haemoparasites have been reported from anuran hosts, this study provides the first published record of dactylosomatid parasites (Dactylosomatidae Jakowska & Nigrelli, 1955 emend. Levine, 1971) in frogs from Slovakia. Of the 239 anurans screened for apicomplexans, 67 individuals…

Deciphering Trypanosoma lainsoni kDNA minicircles: insights into genetic diversity, mRNA editing, and molecular diagnosis
The mitochondrial genome of kinetoplastids, organized in a unique DNA net called the kinetoplast, presents significant complexity compared to other eukaryotic mitochondrial genomes. Minicircles, which constitute over 90% of the kinetoplast mass, are essential for the post-transcriptional editing of…

A novel 3R-compliant ex vivo approach to assess ectoparasiticide repellency against Phlebotomus perniciosus in dogs
Ectoparasiticides are essential for preventing insect bites and transmission of arthropod-borne pathogens such as Leishmania spp. Traditionally, their anti-feeding efficacy is evaluated in vivo using sedated dogs exposed to sand flies. To comply with 3R principles (replacement, reduction and…

Evaluating BG-Sentinel trap setting as an effective surveillance tool for mosquito vectors in the Republic of Cyprus
Effective surveillance of invasive Aedes mosquitoes, particularly Ae. aegypti and Ae. albopictus, is essential for early detection, risk assessment, and optimization of control strategies such as the Sterile Insect Technique (SIT). Although BG-Sentinel 2 traps are widely used in Europe, their…
