changes in hookworm distribution in surinam. | during the months may-july, 1974, a follow-up investigation was carried out on hookworm infections in dogs and cats in order to study changes in the hookworm distribution in surinam since 1967. fifty-two cats and 152 dogs were examined for the presence of helminths in the oesophagus, small intestine, coecum and heart. in total 15,942 helminths were isolated; most of these (14,006) were hookworms belonging to the species ancylostoma caninum, a. tubaeforme, a. ceylanicum and a. braziliense. the av ... | 1976 | 987625 |
the in vitro culture of taenia saginata and taenia taeniaeformis larvae from the oncosphere, with observations on the role of serum for in vitro culture of larval cestodes. | | 1972 | 4119941 |
nadh dehydrogenase subunit 1 and cytochrome c oxidase subunit i sequences compared for members of the genus taenia (cestoda). | nine members of the genus taenia (taenia taeniaeformis, taenia hydatigena, taenia pisiformis, taenia ovis, taenia multiceps, taenia serialis, taenia saginata, taenia solium and the asian taenia) were characterised by their mitochondrial nadh dehydrogenase subunit 1 gene sequences and their genetic relationships were compared with those derived from the cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 sequence data. the extent of inter-taxon sequence difference in nadh dehydrogenase subunit 1 (approximately 5.9-30 ... | 1999 | 10961852 |
efficacy of praziquantel (cesocide injection) in treatment of cestode infections in domestic and laboratory animals. | efficacy of praziquantel (cesocide injection) by intramuscular (i.m.) route against cestode infections was evaluated. total 93 domestic or laboratory animals such as dogs, cats, rats, mice, goats, deers and chickens were used. animals were infected with dipylidium caninum, spirometra sp., taenia pisiformis, taenia taeniaeformis, hymenolepis nana, moniezia expansa, moniezia sp. or raillietina sp. a single dose of praziquantel, 6 mg/kg of body weight, was highly effective (97.9%) against cestodes ... | 1988 | 12811058 |
the role of the subterranean rodent ctenomys talarum (rodentia: octodontidae) in the life cycle of taenia taeniaeformis (cestoda: taeniidae) in urban environments. | this work is the first report of subterranean rodent ctenomys talarum (rodentia: octodontidae) as intermediate host of taenia taeniaeformis in urban areas of mar de cobo (buenos aires province, argentina) and to experimentally reproduce in domestic dogs the adult stage of this parasite. prevalence, mean abundance and mean intensity of infection with t. taeniaeformis larvae in the liver and peritoneal cavity of c. talarum were 64%, 15.3 and 9.8, respectively. ten adults of t. taeniaeformis were o ... | 2004 | 15158554 |
a real-time multiplex-nested pcr system for coprological diagnosis of echinococcus multilocularis and host species. | a hybridization probe-based real-time multiplex-nested pcr system was developed for the simultaneous detection of echinococcus multilocularis and host species directly from faecal samples. species identification was determined by melting curve analysis. specificity was assessed by using dna extracted from various cestodes (e. multilocularis, echinococcus granulosus (g1), echinococcus ortleppi, echinococcus canadensis (g6, g7), taenia crassiceps, taenia hydatigena, taenia mustelae, taenia pisifor ... | 2011 | 21327991 |
a sylvatic lifecycle of echinococcus equinus in the etosha national park, namibia. | various species of echinococcus have been described in the past from wild mammals of sub-saharan africa. however, it is only recently, that a few isolates have become available for molecular identification; therefore, the involvement of wildlife in the lifecycles of the various cryptic species within echinococcus granulosus sensu lato is still only partially known. a preliminary survey was undertaken in etosha national park, namibia, from august to october 2012. faecal samples were obtained from ... | 2015 | 25830103 |
first detection of echinococcus multilocularis in dogs in a highly endemic area of poland. | the aim of the investigation was to estimate the epizootic situation concerning infection by the cestode echinococcus multilocularis leuckart, 1863 in dogs (canis lupus familiaris linnaeus) from a polish region where this parasite is highly prevalent in red foxes. faecal samples (n = 148) were collected from rural dogs in podkarpackie province. samples were examined through nested pcr (for e. multilocularis), multiplex pcr (e. multilocularis, species of taenia linnaeus, 1758) and pcr [e. granulo ... | 2016 | 27311792 |
