| specific antibody responses in dogs experimentally infected with echinococcus granulosus. | six dogs reared helminth-free were divided into 2 groups. four dogs were infected per os with 200,000 protoscoleces each of echinococcus granulosus and 2 were kept as uninfected controls. all the dogs were kept together until 32 days after infection, when 1 infected dog was killed, its intestine removed and the contents examined to confirm that the infection with e. granulosus had been successful. the remaining 3 infected dogs were transferred to high security housing and their feces inspected d ... | 1986 | 3953947 |
| efficacy of a combined paste formulation of praziquantel/febantel against immature echinococcus granulosus and immature echinococcus multilocularis. | a combined paste formulation of praziquantel (1 mg/kg of body wt)/febantel (10 mg/kg) given for 3 consecutive days gave 100% clearance of immature echinococcus granulosus and e multilocularis in experimentally infected dogs. the formulation was extremely convenient to administer. adverse reactions were not noted in the treated animals. | 1985 | 3970434 |
| isolation, fractionation and partial characterization of the tegumental surface from protoscoleces of the hydatid organism, echinococcus granulosus. | several approaches were adopted for the disruption and removal of the tegumental surface from protoscoleces of the horse strain of the hydatid organism, echinococcus granulosus. the effectiveness of each method and the purity of subsequent microthrix-enriched fractions obtained by differential centrifugation were evaluated by electron microscopy, by the amount of protein released and by the degree of enrichment of surface plasma membrane marker enzymes. incubation in saponin for 10 min produced ... | 1985 | 3982850 |
| echinococcus granulosus: diagnosis of hydatid disease in man. | several antigen fractions were prepared from sheep hydatid fluid and scolices of echinococcus granulosus by salting out with ammonium sulphate. sera from subjects with hydatid disease and from uninfected controls were assayed by the iha, latex, elisa and complement fixation tests. the greatest sensitivity was given by the hydatid fluid 0.8 m fraction in the iha test. this antigen also gave good results with the elisa technique. antigens from sheep fertile fluid were diagnostically superior to th ... | 1985 | 3985705 |
| hydatid disease in the turkana district of kenya, iv. the prevalence of echinococcus granulosus infections in dogs, and observations on the role of the dog in the lifestyle of the turkana. | the prevalence of echinococcus granulosus in dogs in the turkana district of kenya was 39.4% of 695 examined. of these, 98 (35.8%) had heavy echinococcus worm burdens (10(3)-5 x 10(4) ), while 54 (19.7%) and 122 (44.5%) had medium (201-1000) and light (1-200) burdens. the possible sources of these infections are discussed. the prevalence rate differed in various parts of the district, ranging from 63.5% in the northwest, where the highest incidence of human hydatidosis also occurs, to nil along ... | 1985 | 3985706 |

| characterization of parasite antigens from human hydatid cyst fluid by sds-page and ief. | combining high resolution power of sds-page and ief with the specific immunological recognition of a human antiserum directed against echinococcus granulosus antigens, we could identify, in 4 hydatid cystic fluids of human origin, 4 antigens with a molecular weight in the range 32-13 kd, and an antigen of 200 kd which, in reducing conditions, gave 2 bands of 67 and 52 kd. in addition, mainly in one of the cystic fluids, there were at least another 4 specific non-reducible bands with a molecular ... | 1985 | 4000065 |
| hydatidosis in sardinia: review and recommendations. | in sardinia, hydatidosis due to echinococcus granulosus is endemic and constitutes a current and important problem in the economy and public health. this paper reviews the epidemiological aspects, including the geographical distribution, and the socio-cultural factors involved in the dissemination of hydatidosis. hospital data indicate that about 200 people undergo surgery for hydatid cysts every year with an average of 8.8 deaths annually. an average of 80% of the sheep are infected, constituti ... | 1985 | 4002284 |
| epidemiology of hydatid disease in kenya: a study of the domestic intermediate hosts in masailand. | the results are given of a study on the epidemiological significance of cattle, sheep and goats in maintaining the life-cycle of echinococcus granulosus in masailand, kenya. a total of 134 (8.9%) of 1499 cattle, 146 (8.1%) of 1798 sheep and 144 (7.1%) of 2020 goats slaughtered in abattoirs in masailand were found to harbour hydatid cysts. the frequency distribution of the hydatid cysts in each intermediate host species was over-dispersed. of 729 cattle cysts examined 71 (9.7%) were fertile (cyst ... | 1985 | 4002289 |
| strain identification of echinococcus granulosus in determining origin of infection in a case of human hydatid disease in australia. | viable parasitic material from cysts removed surgically from a human patient was used to differentiate the infecting strain of echinococcus granulosus from another to which the patient may have been exposed. it was shown that the patient was infected with the australian mainland domestic strain. the age of the cyst material was estimated by microscopical and histological examinations. combination of these data with an investigation of the patient's life-history allowed identification of the most ... | 1985 | 4002294 |
| treatment of cystic echinococcosis (echinococcus granulosus) with mebendazole: assessment of bound and free drug levels in cyst fluid and of parasite vitality in operative specimens. | chemotherapy of the larval stage of echinococcus granulosus in man with high oral doses of mebendazole has only been partly successful. in order to improve effective pharmacotherapy of this disease with mebendazole, the optimal time for blood sampling has been assessed and the mebendazole concentrations acting on the parasite have been compared with their viability. the optimal time for blood sampling was analysed in 14 patients during longterm treatment with mebendazole. the plasma level 4 h af ... | 1985 | 4007032 |
