dicrocoelium dendriticum infestation of mouflons (ovis musimon) in catalonia.		1998	9802199
mouflon (ovis musimon) dicrocoeliosis: effects of parasitosis on the activities of biotransformation enzymes and albendazole metabolism in liver.	parasitic infections can modify the host's ability to metabolize drugs and other xenobiotics by altering the biotransformation enzymes; these changes may have various pharmacological, toxicological or physiological consequences. in our study, several activities of liver biotransformation enzymes and in vitro metabolism of albendazole (abz) were tested and compared in non-infected mouflons (ovis musimon) and in mouflons infected by lancet fluke (dicrocoelium dendriticum). subcellular fractions of ...	2007	17386978
morphological and molecular differentiation between dicrocoelium dendriticum (rudolphi, 1819) and dicrocoelium chinensis (sudarikov and ryjikov, 1951) tang and tang, 1978 (platyhelminthes: digenea).	dicrocoelium dendriticum (rudolphi, 1819) and dicrocoelium hospes (looss, 1907) are recognised to affect the liver of domestic and wild ruminants. a third species, dicrocoelium orientalis which was described from musk deer in the baikal region of the former soviet union and re-named to dicrocoelium chinensis (sudarikov and ryjikov, 1951) tang and tang, 1978 was isolated from other species of deer in asian countries and from mouflon and roe deer in europe. scant information is available for d. ch ...	2007	17803950
the transport of albendazole and albendazole sulphoxide in the lancet fluke (dicrocoelium dendriticum).	albendazole (abz) is one of the most important benzimidazole compounds possessing high activity against the lancet fluke, dicrocoelium dendriticum. abz sulphoxide (abz.so) is the main molecule present in the bloodstream of an abz-treated host. the aim of this study was to characterise the pattern of ex vivo uptake of abz and abz.so by lancet flukes and the export of both anthelmintics from these parasites. transport of these anthelmintics in both living and dead flukes was compared. the adult fl ...	2010	21075525
detection of antibodies in wild ruminants to evaluate exposure to liver trematodes.	wild ruminants sharing pastures with domestic livestock are at risk of infection by liver trematodes. detection of antibodies provides a very useful tool to gain more knowledge about the distribution of these parasites. non-lethal methods are strongly encouraged for the analysis of the risk of infection among wild ruminants. a seroepidemiological survey was conducted to analyze exposure to hepatic trematodes ( fasciola hepatica and dicrocoelium dendriticum ) in wild ruminants from southern spain ...	2012	22414166
