| ascarid infections of cats and dogs. | the ascarids toxocara canis, toxocara cati, and toxascaris leonina are probably the most common gastrointestinal helminths encountered in small animal practice. both t. canis and t. cati can cause serious disease in kittens and puppies; t. leonina is generally less pathogenic. prenatal transmission assures that virtually all puppies are born infected with t. canis. transmammary transmission is probably the major route of infection for kittens with t. cati. in addition, all three species of worm ... | 1987 | 3328391 |
| changes in the white blood picture during experimental larval ascariasis, toxocariasis and toxascariasis. | haematological changes were studied in rabbits experimentally infected with different doses of ascaris suum, toxacara canis and toxascaris leonina. the numbers of leucocytes, eosinophiles and neutrophiles were changed and the strongest eosinophila was observed between the 2nd and 3rd week of infection (5.2-7.1%). the intensity of reaction was not related to the used infection dose. the eosinophilia was always lower in toxocariasis and toxascariasis than in ascariasis at identical doses of infect ... | 1985 | 3862632 |

| population dynamics across selected habitat variables of the helminth community in coyotes, canis latrans, from south texas. | the effects of selected intrinsic variables operating on host subpopulations and of extrinsic variables across the collective host population on the distributions of 10 common helminth species from coyotes in south texas were compared. the intrinsic variables of host sex and presence and severity of sarcoptic mange had little effect on the distributions of most helminth species. the combined influences of (1) seasonal changes across the collective host population and (2) host subpopulations deli ... | 1984 | 6512639 |

| [fatty acid composition of the helminths of cold- and warm-blooded vertebrates]. | studies have been made on fatty acid composition of 5 species of parasitic helminthes from fish, birds and mammals. as compared to the lipids from helminthes of endothermic animals (diphylobothrium dendriticum and toxascaris leonina), those from fish parasites (eubothrium crassum, triaenophorus nodulosus and metechynorhynchus salmonis) are less saturated and contain higher amounts of penta- and hexaenic acids, acids of omega 3 type, being less rich in the content of stearic, oleic, dienic and om ... | 1980 | 7468010 |
| some intestinal parasites of arctic fox, banks island, n. w. t. | small intestinal parasitology of 50 trapped arctic fox taken on banks island, the northwest territories, showed a prevalence of taenia crassiceps (78%), toxascaris leonina (60%), echinococcus multilocularis (2%) and coccidia (2%). attention is drawn to the absence of toxocara sp. and of uncinaria sp. | 1979 | 497890 |
| the efficacy of amidantel, a new anthelmintic, on hookworms and ascarids in dogs. | amidantel is a new anthelmintic from a new chemical class with an interesting anthelmintic spectrum. in dogs amidantel is highly effective in a single oral dose of 25 mg/kg against both hookworm species, ancylostoma caninum and unicinaria stenocephala. in toxascaris leonina infected dogs a complete cure rate was achieved with a single oral dose of 50 mg/kg. similar results were obtained with 8 mg/kg administered three times per day. the most sensitive parasite to amidantel was found to be toxoca ... | 1979 | 295548 |
| gastrointestinal parasitism of iowa coyotes in relation to age. | taenia sp., physaloptera sp., ancylostoma caninum, toxascaris leonina, and/or trichuris vulpis were recovered from gastrointestinal tracts of 141 and 144 (97.9%) coyotes ranging from 1/2 to 8 1/2 years of age. ancylostoma caninum exhibited a significant decline in both prevalence and mean number per coyote with increasing age of the host. taenia sp. appeared with consistently high prevalence in all age classes. physaloptera sp. and t. leonina showed general reductions in prevalence in all age cl ... | 1978 | 641673 |
| gastrointestinal helminths in dogs from a humane shelter in indiana. | between january 1975 and august 1976, the alimentary tracts of 104 euthanatized dogs from a humane shelter in tippecanoe county, indiana, were examined to determine the prevalence of gastrointestinal helminths. the survey was restricted to dogs greater than 1 year old. their average age was estimated at approximately 2 years. parasitism was detected in 86.5% of the dogs examined. ancylostoma caninum was found most often (58.7%), followed by trichuris vulpis (51.9%), taenia sp (31.7%), toxocara c ... | 1978 | 721684 |
| visceral larva migrans and alveolar hydatid disease. dangers real or imagined. | for both visceral larva migrans and alveolar hydatid diseases, it is the feces of companion animals that are the primary source of human infection. clearly, whatever is done to reduce this form of environmental contamination and the prevalence of the parasites' infective stages will help to protect the health of the human population in the united states and canada, particularly the children. very important are appropriate anthelmintic treatment programs, especially for t. canis, and proper contr ... | 1978 | 356405 |
| [research on intestinal parasitic diseases in dogs of the city of rome]. | a survey on the diffusion of intestinal parasites of dogs in the town of rome. the results of a survey on the diffusion of cestodes and nematodes in a hundred dogs in rome are reported. the dogs were subjected to fecal examinations --- using both the flottation method and the mcmaster method -- and to the post-mortem examination of the intestine. at post-mortem examination 25 dogs were found parasitized by one or more species of nematodes, 19 by one or more species of cestodes and 12 both by ces ... | 1977 | 754133 |
| toxocara infection in pigs. the use of indirect fluorescent antibody tests and an in vitro larval precipitate test for detecting specific antibodies. | an in vitro larval precipitate test using second-stage toxocara canis larvae and an indirect fluorescent antibody (ifa) test employing cuticles of t. canis larvae as antigen were evaluated using antisera produced in pigs experimentally infected with t. canis, t. cati, ascaris suum, toxascaris leonina and parascaris equorum. the former test was both specific and sensitive and is suggested as a reliable and simple method of detecting toxocara antibodies in pigs. the latter test was considered unsu ... | 1977 | 328560 |
