| first report of ancylostoma ceylanicum in wild canids. | the parasitic nematode ancylostoma ceylanicum is common in dogs, cats and humans throughout asia, inhabiting the small intestine and possibly leading to iron-deficient anaemia in those infected. it has previously been discovered in domestic dogs in australia and this is the first report of a. ceylanicum in wild canids. wild dogs (dingoes and dingo hybrids) killed in council control operations (n = 26) and wild dog scats (n = 89) were collected from the wet tropics region around cairns, far north ... | 2013 | 24533332 |
| the hookworm ancylostoma ceylanicum: an emerging public health risk in australian tropical rainforests and indigenous communities. | ancylostoma ceylanicum is the common hookworm of domestic dogs and cats throughout asia, and is an emerging but little understood public health risk in tropical northern australia. we investigated the prevalence of a. ceylanicum in soil and free-ranging domestic dogs at six rainforest locations in far north queensland that are indigenous australian communities and popular tourist attractions within the wet tropics world heritage area. by combining pcr-based techniques with traditional methods of ... | 2017 | 28616506 |
| efficacy of a combination product containing pyrantel, febantel and praziquantel (drontal plus flavour, bayer animal health) against experimental infection with the hookworm ancylostoma ceylanicum in dogs. | ancylostoma ceylanicum is a common hookworm of dogs, cats and humans in asia. more recently, this hookworm was found to infect dogs in australia. the objective of this study was to determine the efficacy of a combination product containing pyrantel, febantel and praziquantel (drontal) plus flavour, bayer) against a. ceylanicum in experimentally infected dogs. twelve dogs were each subcutaneously injected with 300 infective third-stage larvae of a. ceylanicum. pups were stratified by egg count an ... | 2010 | 19911198 |
| antibodies against a secreted protein from hookworm larvae reduce the intensity of hookworm infection in humans and vaccinated laboratory animals. | the development of a vaccine would provide an important new tool for the control of human hookworm infection. on the basis of successful vaccination of laboratory animals with living irradiated, third-stage hookworm larvae (l3), we examined the antibody responses of individuals from hookworm endemic areas of brazil and china against the most abundant l3 secreted antigens, the ancylostoma secreted proteins, asp-1 and asp-2. logistic regression was used to investigate the effects of antibody isoty ... | 2005 | 16037096 |
| the anticoagulant effects of the hookworm, ancylostoma ceylanicum: observations on human and dog blood in vitro and infected dogs in vivo. | extracts of adult ancylostoma ceylanicum prolonged the prothrombin time (pt) and partial thromboplastin time with kaolin ( pptk ) of both human and dog plasmas in vitro. excretory/secretory (e/s) products of these worms had similar effects while larval extract prolonged the pttk only. thus, the anticoagulant activities of this parasite are dependent upon the stage of the worm's life cycle. collagen- and adp-induced platelet aggregation were inhibited by adult and larval extracts. when the periph ... | 1984 | 6740554 |
| transmission electron microscopical studies of the site of attachment of ancylostoma ceylanicum to the small bowel mucosa of the dog. | the host-parasite interaction at the site of attachment of the adult hookworm, ancylostoma ceylanicum, to the small bowel mucosa of the dog has been examined by transmission electron microscopy. the lamina propria around the heads of the worms showed intense infiltration with neutrophilic and eosinophilic leucocytes, and plasma cells were also prominent. erythrocytes were extravasated within the lamina propria while the portions of mucosa engulfed into the buccal cavities of the worms were necro ... | 1984 | 6520374 |
| resistance of dogs to reinfection with ancylostoma ceylanicum following anthelmintic therapy. | a model of human hookworm infection has been developed which shows that dogs with chronic hookworm infection are considerably resistant to reinfection one month after the termination of the primary infection with anthelmintics. challenge and control dogs were infected with 1,800 larvae and the infection was followed for six weeks. when compared with control dogs, faecal egg excretion and intestinal adult worm burdens in challenge dogs were reduced by 85% and 77%, respectively. infection had no s ... | 1985 | 4082263 |
| experimental infection with ancylostoma ceylanicum in dogs and efficacy of a spot on combination containing imidacloprid 10% and moxidectin 2.5% (advocate/advantage multi, bayer animal health). | ancylostoma ceylanicum is a common hookworm of dogs, cats and humans in asia. more recently, this hookworm was found to infect dogs in australia. the objective of this study was to determine the efficacy of a spot on combination product containing imidacloprid 10% and moxidectin 2.5% (advocate/advantage multi, bayer animal health) against a. ceylanicum in experimentally infected dogs. twelve dogs were each subcutaneously injected with 300 infective third-stage larvae of a. ceylanicum. pups were ... | 2010 | 20349196 |
| 3, 5-dibromo-2'-chloro-4'-isothiocyanatosalicylanilide, a potent anthelmintic. | the compound, 3, 5-dibromo-2'-chloro-4'-isothiocyanatosalicylanilide, has been tested against various nematode and cestode parasites in experimental and domestic animals. it shoved 100% activity against ancylostoma ceylanicum, a tubaeformis, syphacia obvelata, ascaridia galli, toxocara spp., toxascaris sp., gnathostoma spinigerum, hymenolepis nana, raillietina spp. and taenia spp. in doses 25-70 mg/kg given in single or multiple administrations. | 1982 | 7084406 |
