Background: Exposure to zearalenone (ZEN, a widespread Fusarium mycotoxin) causes reproductive toxicity and immunotoxicity in farm animals, and it then poses potential threats to human health through the food chain. A systematic understanding of underlying mechanisms on mycotoxin-induced toxicity...

Background: Trichinella spiralis is a zoonotic food-borne parasite. A disease caused by infection with T. spiralis is called trichinellosis in humans. It is important to investigate the epidemic situation and the surveillance of herds and then prevent infection in humans. Therefore, this study is...

Aeromonas salmonicida is a global fish pathogen that can infect a series of fish species. Vaccination by commercial vaccine has been proved to be an effective method to control this disease in Atlantic salmon. However, commercial vaccines used to protect against A. salmonicida subsp. salmonicida...

Background: Climate change may lead to emerging and re-emerging infectious diseases and pose public health challenges to human health and the already overloaded healthcare system. It is therefore important to review current knowledge and identify further directions in China, the largest developing...

Purpose: Canine hookworm disease is a global zoonotic parasitic disease caused by a variety of nematodes in families Ancylostomatidae, including Ancylostoma spp., Necator spp., and Uncinaria spp., in the small intestine (mainly the duodenum) of dogs. The disease is widely distributed in China. The ...

Background: Previous epidemiological studies have confirmed non-human primates (NHPs) as reservoirs for Cryptosporidium spp., Giardia intestinalis, and Enterocytozoon bieneusi. It highlights the possibility of interspecies transmission between humans and macaques in laboratory animal facilities....

The Apicomplexa parasites are single-celled eukaryote with obligate intracellular parasitism. The phylum Apicomplexa contain a large group of unicellular parasites that are the main causative pathogens for some of the important infectious diseases in human and livestock. The studies showed that...

Trichinellosis caused by Trichinella spiralis is a worldwide food-borne parasitic zoonosis. Several approaches have been performed to control T. spiralis infection, including veterinary vaccines, which contribute to improving animal health and increasing public health by preventing the transmission ...

Objective: To In vestige and analyze the mycotoxin contamination in feed materials in 2019. Methods: The content of vomiting toxin, corn gibberelone and aflatoxin B1 in the bulk feed materials purchased by the molecular companies of anyou group was rapidly detected by colloidal-gold immunoassays or ...

Zoonoses are a class of infectious diseases that are transmitted from animals to humans. More than 200 known types of zoonoses have been reported across the world until now. Among 1 400 pathogens of human infectious diseases, approximately 61% are zoonotic origin, and 75% human emerging infectious ...
