Evaluation of hops essential oil cytotoxicity and anti-cryptosporidium activity
… vitro cytotoxicity (IC50) were determined in an HCT-8 intestinal cell model using flow cytometry and staining for non-viable cells with propidium iodide after treatment with controls and different concentrations of bioactives of interest (i.e. HEO and myrcene) for 24 and 48 h (37℃ and 5% CO2). To …

Lifecycle Progression And The Sexual Development Of The Apicomplexan Parasite Cryptosporidium Parvum
… infection in cancerous cell lines (HCT-8 and Caco-2) lasts for only three days but mice stay infected for a month We engineered a strain that allows to discern different stages and used it to study the developmental kinetics in HCT-8 cells and mice. Parasites replicated asexually in …

Effect of Metabolic Enzymes on Amylopectin Content and Infectivity of Cryptosporidium parvum
… stages, allow them to be mobile, invade host cells, and to continue their life cycle. The objective of this project was to determine if parasite glycolytic enzymes: alpha-amylase, amyloglucosidase, enolase, lactate dehydrogenase, and phosphorylase could be used to decrease amylopectin stores …

Evaluation of chemical treatments and ozone on the viability of Cryptosporidium parvum oocysts in fruit juices
… assay, using a human illeocecal cell line (HCT-8) that is most similar to human infection. The percent inhibition of infection by each treatment was determined along with the corresponding log reduction for the treatments found to be most effective. Infection by treated oocysts was compared …

Lipid-based nutrient supplement to address child undernutrition and enteric parasitic infections in India
… of parasite C. parvum invasion and infection of HCT-8 cells. Finally, β-Cyclodextrin (β-CyD) encapsulation of OEO and carvacrol (1:1 molar) was utilized to mask the potent flavor of bioactives, and achieve controlled intestinal delivery of bioactives, measured using triangle sensory test and …
