Abstract excerpt

Blastocystis sp. is a common intestinal protozoan parasite that colonises humans and various animals, with rodents identified as significant reservoir hosts for zoonotic transmission. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence and subtype distribution of Blastocystis sp. among wild rats in Pulau Pinang, Malaysia, while evaluating the associations with host demographics and geographic factors. A total of 150...
