Abstract

Pentatrichomonas hominis is a zoonotic pathogen with a wide host range, yet epidemiological data in mink and raccoon dogs remain sparse. This study investigates the prevalence of P. hominis in these species by analyzing 498 fecal samples collected from Hebei, Shandong, Liaoning, Jilin, and Heilongjiang provinces in China. Results revealed an overall infection rate of 9.64% (48/498, 95% confidence interval 7.19-12.58), with mink showing a 0.36% infection rate (1/276) and raccoon dogs 21.17% (47/222). Female animals had higher infection rates (9.87%, 47/476) than males (4.55%, 1/22). Adults exhibited higher infection rates (10.31%, 46/446) compared with juveniles (3.85%, 2/52). Phylogenetic analysis identified the CC1 genotype in all P. hominis detected. This study provides important epidemiological data on P. hominis infection in mink and raccoon dogs across five provinces, offering new insights into its regional distribution and transmission dynamics. These findings contribute to the development of more effective control strategies in the future.

中国五省养殖水貂和貉中人五毛单胞菌的流行病学研究

人五毛单胞菌是一种具有广泛宿主范围的人畜共患病原体，但在水貂和貉中的流行病学数据仍然很少。通过对河北省、山东省、辽宁省、吉林省和黑龙江省采集的498份粪便样本进行调查，研究了人原疟原虫的流行情况。结果总感染率为9.64%(48/498,95%可信区间为7.19-12.58)，其中水貂感染率为0.36%(1/276)，貉感染率为21.17%（47/222）。雌性动物感染率（9.87%,47/476）高于雄性动物（4.55%,1/22）。成人感染率（10.31%,46/446）高于青少年（3.85%,2/52）。系统发育分析证实了所有人疟原虫的CC1基因型。本研究提供了五省水貂和貉人源疟原虫感染的重要流行病学资料，为研究人源疟原虫的区域分布和传播动态提供了新的思路。这些发现有助于未来开发更有效的控制策略。

期刊介绍： Foodborne Pathogens and Disease is one of the most inclusive scientific publications on the many disciplines that contribute to food safety. Spanning an array of issues from "farm-to-fork," the Journal bridges the gap between science and policy to reduce the burden of foodborne illness worldwide. Foodborne Pathogens and Disease coverage includes: Agroterrorism Safety of organically grown and genetically modified foods Emerging pathogens Emergence of drug resistance Methods and technology for rapid and accurate detection Strategies to destroy or control foodborne pathogens Novel strategies for the prevention and control of plant and animal diseases that impact food safety Biosecurity issues and the implications of new regulatory guidelines Impact of changing lifestyles and consumer demands on food safety.
