Molecular Identification of Encephalitazoon intestinalis and the Prevalence of Renal Microsporidiosis in Renal Transplant Recipients in Türkiye.

Our epidemiological results show that the prevalence of renal microsporidiosis in kidney transplant recipients is very low. In addition, as a result of the phylogenetic analysis of the detected isolate, it was observed that it was 100% identical to the isolates reported from dogs in Kayseri, Türkiye. This situation provided essential data regarding the zoonotic transmission dynamics of microsporidia.
