Molecular incidence of Toxoplasma gondii, Neospora caninum, and Cryptosporidium parvum in dissimilar kinds of raw and pasteurized milk samples of naturally infected animal species

Milk of naturally infected animal species is considered an essential reservoir of Toxoplasma gondii, Neospora caninum, and Cryptosporidium parvum. An extant survey was performed to measure the T. gondii, N. caninum, and C. parvum incidence and periodic frequency amongst milk samples. One-thousand an...
