IntroductionRefractile bodies (RB) are large membrane-less organelles (MLO) of unknown function found as a prominent mismatched pair within the sporozoite stages of all species of Eimeria, parasitic coccidian protozoa. MethodsHigh resolution imaging... Read More about Refractile bodies of Eimeria tenella are proteinaceous membrane-less organelles that undergo dynamic changes during infection.

This study investigated the in vitro effects of Greek oregano and garlic essential oils on inhibition of Eimeria parasites and their in vivo effects on production performance, intestinal bacteria counts, and oocyst output. An inhibition assay was per...
