raillietina cesticillus: rejection by bursa-deficient chickens.chickens in which antibody-forming capacity was abrogated by bursectomy and irradiation developed protective immunity against raillietina cesticillus as effective as controls which had specific antiworm antibodies in their sera and immunoglobulin positive cells in splenic and intestinal tissues. it is concluded that antibodies are not essential for the rejection of the tapeworm by chickens and may even retard rejection.19817043685

scanning electron microscope examination of scale-like spines on the rostellumm of five davaineinae (cestoda, cyclophyllidea).the study by scanning electron microscope of the scolex of cotugnia polyacantha, raillietina (r.) echinobothrida, r (r.) tetragona, r. (r.) tunetensis and r.

the diurnal migration of the fowl cestode, raillietina cesticillus.r. cesticillus was found to undergo a diurnal migration in both multiple and single worm infections of the fowl. this migration involved movement of both scoleces and strobilae and occurred in an anterior direction when the intestine was empty of food, and in a posterior direction when the intestine contained food. the relevance of the migration to the histological picture of the worm in situ is discussed and some possible explanations for the migration are suggested.1977564499

the cellular response of the fowl small intestine to primary and secondary infections of the cestode raillietina cesticillus (molin).infections of raillietina cesticillus in the small intestine of the fowl caused a mononuclear leucocyte infiltration, which occurred in the tissues around the worm scolices and was especially prevalent in challenge infections. there was no evidence of vascular congestion or of a neutrophilic response, and the cellular reaction seemed to consist of a local proliferation of lymphoid tissue. mast cell and pyroninophylic cell numbers increased in the intestinal mucosa of birds with longstanding prim ...1976988531
ground beetle, opatroides frater (coleoptera) as natural intermediate host for the poultry tapeworm, raillietina cesticillus.poultry farms in and around namakkal with a history of tapeworm infection were surveyed for the presence of beetles which could act as intermediate host for the tapeworms. beetles collected from different poultry farms with suspected tapeworm infection were examined for the presence of metacestode stage of the parasite. a total of 1,880 beetles were collected from 12 poultry farms with suspected tapeworm infection to study the vector potentiality. out of these, 205 beetles (10.9 %) from nine far ...201424505191
