Passing of a pathogen causing communicable disease from an infected host individual or group to other individual or group, regardless of whether the other individual was previously infected.
Background: Contributions of contaminated wheelchairs to nosocomial pathogentransmission are relatively unknown.
2
Prioritizing disinfection of these surfaces may reduce pathogentransmission within healthcare environments.
3
Understanding respiratory pathogentransmission is essential for public health measures aimed at reducing pathogen spread.
4
Despite being such an important issue, our knowledge of pathogentransmission by ticks is incomplete.
5
Conclusions: Fomites such as stethoscopes, clothing, and portable equipment may be underappreciated sources of pathogentransmission.
6
Diurnal temperature fluctuations can fundamentally alter mosquito biology and mosquito-virus interactions in ways that impact pathogentransmission.
7
Discussion: Routine hygienic maintenance of the PTS makes pathogentransmission highly unlikely, although entry racks should be disinfected regularly.
8
The role of contaminated fomites such as portable equipment, stethoscopes, and clothing of personnel in pathogentransmission is unclear.
9
The salivary glands are vital to the biological success of ticks and they are a major route of pathogentransmission.
10
Differences in pathogentransmission led to shifts in fitted antibody curves that were remarkably consistent across pathogens, assays, and populations.
11
Background: Reliable information on host use by arthropod vectors is required to study pathogentransmission ecology and to predict disease risk.
12
Plant essential oils (EOs) have been considered as spatial repellents to help disrupt the pathogentransmission cycle of mosquitoes.
13
We have developed a mathematical model of pathogentransmission by a defined insect population to evaluate the importance of mechanical transmission.
14
These results indicate that CM has the potential to interfere with pathogentransmission and modulate immune responses at the colorectal mucosa.
15
We conducted a workshop in March 2014 to identify the challenges associated with developing models of pathogentransmission across the wildlife-livestock interface.
16
Mathematical models of mosquito-borne pathogentransmission originated in the early twentieth century to provide insights into how to most effectively combat malaria.
