Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Virus
  • Toxoplasma gondii

His main research concerns Toxoplasma gondii, Direct agglutination test, Virology, Feces and Toxoplasmosis. The study incorporates disciplines such as Veterinary medicine, Seroprevalence, Microbiology and Canis in addition to Toxoplasma gondii. His Direct agglutination test study incorporates themes from Titer and Free range.

His Virology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Didelphis albiventris, Equine protozoal myeloencephalitis, Isolation, Neospora caninum and Antibody. His work carried out in the field of Feces brings together such families of science as Opossum, Didelphis, Sarcocystosis, Apicomplexa and Intermediate host. The various areas that he examines in his Toxoplasmosis study include House mice, Animal science and Risk factor.

His most cited work include:

  • PREVALENCE OF VIABLE TOXOPLASMA GONDII IN BEEF, CHICKEN, AND PORK FROM RETAIL MEAT STORES IN THE UNITED STATES: RISK ASSESSMENT TO CONSUMERS (273 citations)
  • Biological and genetic characterisation of Toxoplasma gondii isolates from chickens (Gallus domesticus) from São Paulo, Brazil: unexpected findings. (259 citations)
  • Toxoplasma gondii, Neospora caninum, Sarcocystis neurona, and Sarcocystis canis-like infections in marine mammals (225 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Toxoplasma gondii, Direct agglutination test, Toxoplasmosis, Virology and Veterinary medicine are his primary areas of study. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Feces, Seroprevalence, Apicomplexa and Free range. Oliver C.H. Kwok combines subjects such as Titer, Neospora caninum and Canis with his study of Direct agglutination test.

His Toxoplasmosis study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Zoology, Latex fixation test, Epidemiology, Outbreak and Public health. The concepts of his Virology study are interwoven with issues in Sarcocystis neurona, Inoculation and Antigen. His Veterinary medicine research incorporates elements of Odocoileus, Ursus and Serum samples.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Toxoplasma gondii (78.18%)
  • Direct agglutination test (61.82%)
  • Toxoplasmosis (47.88%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Toxoplasma gondii (78.18%)
  • Toxoplasmosis (47.88%)
  • Epidemiology (7.27%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Oliver C.H. Kwok mainly focuses on Toxoplasma gondii, Toxoplasmosis, Epidemiology, Veterinary medicine and Public health. His Toxoplasma gondii research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Feces, Direct agglutination test, Genetic diversity and Virology. He is investigating Direct agglutination test as part of his inquiry into Serology and Antibody.

His work is dedicated to discovering how Toxoplasmosis, Seroprevalence are connected with Wildlife and Neospora caninum and other disciplines. He works mostly in the field of Epidemiology, limiting it down to topics relating to Subclinical infection and, in certain cases, Immunology, as a part of the same area of interest. His Veterinary medicine research integrates issues from Odocoileus, Mouse bioassay, Pasture, Isolation and Infectivity.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Littermate cats rescued from a shelter succumbed to acute, primary toxoplasmosis associated with TOXO DB genotype #4, generally circulating in wildlife (12 citations)
  • Distribution of Toxoplasma gondii Tissue Cysts in Shoulder Muscles of Naturally Infected Goats and Lambs (9 citations)
  • Genotyping of viable Toxoplasma gondii from the first national survey of feral swine revealed evidence for sylvatic transmission cycle, and presence of highly virulent parasite genotypes. (9 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Ecology
  • Virus
  • Zoology

His primary areas of investigation include Toxoplasma gondii, Toxoplasmosis, Direct agglutination test, Veterinary medicine and Virology. Oliver C.H. Kwok has researched Toxoplasma gondii in several fields, including Feces, Epidemiology and Serology. His research integrates issues of Outbreak, Asymptomatic, Public health, Acquired Toxoplasmosis and Physiology in his study of Feces.

His Serology study combines topics in areas such as Interferon gamma and Microbiology. In most of his Toxoplasmosis studies, his work intersects topics such as Immunosuppression. His work in Veterinary medicine is not limited to one particular discipline; it also encompasses Pasture.
