Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Typically, carnivores serve as definitive hosts for Sarcocystis spp. parasites; currently, their role as intermediate hosts is being elucidated. The present study aimed to identify and molecularly characterize Sarcocystis cysts detected in striated muscle of red foxes from different populations in Latvia, Lithuania and Spain. METHODS: Muscle samples from 411 red foxes (Vulpes vulpes) and 269 racoon...
