Sporulation and Survival of Toxoplasma gondii Oocysts in Seawater
David S. Lindsay,Marina V. Collins,Sheila M. Mitchell,Rebecca A. Cole,George J. Flick,Carly N. Wetch,Alan Lindquist,Jitender P. Dubey +7 more
TL;DR: Results indicate that T. gondii oocysts can sporulate and remain viable in seawater for several months.
Journal ArticleDOI
Survival of toxoplasma gondii oocysts in eastern oysters (crassostrea virginica)
David S. Lindsay,Marina V. Collins,Sheila M. Mitchell,Carly N. Wetch,Alexa C. Rosypal,George J. Flick,Anne M. Zajac,Alan Lindquist,Jitender P. Dubey +8 more
TL;DR: Examination of the long-term survival of T. gondii in oysters and how efficient oysters were at removing oocysts from seawater indicates that T.Gondii can survive for several months in oyster and that oysters can readily remove T. Gondii oocyst from seaw water.

David S. Lindsay,Marina V. Collins,Sheila M. Mitchell,Carly N. Wetch,Alexa C. Rosypal,George J. Flick,Anne M. Zajac +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the long-term survival of T. gondii oocysts in oysters and examined how efficient oysters were at removing oocyst from seawater.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prevalence of antibodies to neospora caninum, sarcocystis neurona, and toxoplasma gondii in wild horses from central wyoming
Jitender P. Dubey,Sheila M. Mitchell,Jennifer K. Morrow,J. C. Rhyan,L. M. Stewart,David E. Granstrom,S. Romand,P. Thulliez,William J. Saville,David S. Lindsay +9 more
TL;DR: Seroprevalence of these coccidians in 276 wild horses from central Wyoming outside the known range of the opossum (Didelphis virginiana) was determined, suggesting that either there is cross-reactivity between S. neurona and some other infection or a definitive host other than opossums is the source of infection.
Journal ArticleDOI
Scriptaid and suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid are histone deacetylase inhibitors with potent anti–toxoplasma gondii activity in vitro
Jeannine S. Strobl,Meredith Cassell,Sheila M. Mitchell,Christopher M. Reilly,David S. Lindsay +4 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that the hydroxamic acid class of histone deacetylase inhibitors exhibit potent anti–T.
