| prevalence of borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato in ixodes ricinus ticks (acari, ixodidae) in different polish woodlands. | in 1996-1998, a total of 2285 ixodes ricinus ticks (1063 nymphs, 637 males, 585 females) were collected from vegetation from 25 different localities in the 8 polish provinces throughout the country. ticks inhabited all 25 collection sites. the average number of ticks per collection site was 91.4 +/- 13.7. all 2285 ticks were examined for borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato (s.l.) presence, of which 1333 specimens from 3 provinces were tested by routine indirect immunofluorescence assay (ifa) using p ... | 1999 | 10607993 |
| zoonotic reservoir of babesia microti in poland. | babesiosis is as one of the emerging human and animal diseases transmitted by ticks. it is caused intraerythrocytic parasites of the genus babesia. current evidence of human babesiosis suggests that the majority of cases are involved by babesia divergens and babesia microti piroplasms. as zoonotic reservoir of b. microti serve small mammals--insectivores and rodents. the occurrence of this parasite in natural environment in poland is documented for various regions, in the wide range of mammal ho ... | 2004 | 15787199 |
| [parasites of mouflons, stags and roe-deer from the lower silesia region]. | the study concerning internal and external parasites in deer was conducted in selected lower silesia forest inspections from may 1988 till june 1992. coproscopic method and section were applied. only in roe-deer the highly extensive invasion of gastrointestinal nematodes was observed (from 50% to 81%, depending on inspections). most frequent were the ostertagia (60%) and nematodirus (30%) types. another problem, mainly in mouflons, were lung nematodes of protostrongylidae family, of which the mu ... | 1994 | 7801642 |
| [borrelia burgdorferi infection of ticks in some regions of poland]. | ixodes ricinus and dermacentor reticulatus ticks were collected by flagging from the vegetation at five different locations in poland in may 1994. i. ricinus (n191) and d. reticulatus (n48), as well as 24 argas reflexus collected from katowice, kornie, szcyglice, urwitałt and zwierzyniec, were examined for the presence of borrelia spirochetes by the indirect immunofluorescent antibody test (ifa). borrelia were found in adult i. ricinus ticks at all 5 collection sites. nine out of 39 i. ricinus m ... | 1994 | 7597184 |
| biometrical analysis of the common tick, ixodes ricinus, in the sleza massif (lower silesia, poland). | the aim of this study was to biometrically analyze the behavioral activity of ixodes ricinus ticks as influenced by season and trend in numbers, based on material collected during three years in the sleza landscape park within the sleza massif (lower silesia, poland) using a time series decomposition method. the effects of the abiotic factors of air temperature and humidity on this activity were also determined. a total of 2,745 nymphs and adults of i. ricinus was observed and collected from 200 ... | 2006 | 17249340 |
| [preliminary studies of the occurrence of ixodes ricinus (acari: ixodida: ixodidae) in the areas of the cracow-czestochowa highland at various stages of human industrial activities]. | in the years 1987-88 the density of the population of i. ricinus on the territory of kraków-czestochowa highland including the ojców national park was studied. the method of collection of ticks from 100 m2 fields was applied. on the spite of similar ecological conditions there was marked variation in the population density of i. ricinus. it decreased from east to west, where territories are under the strong pressure of the upper silesia and olkusz industry. | 1991 | 1823484 |
| [biology of ixodes ricinus (l.) and its pathogens in wrocław area]. | within 2001-2003, a total of 4743 ticks of ixodes ricinus were trapped from the forest area in masyw sliy (lower silesia, poland) near wrocław. common distribution of ixodid ticks in all examined habitats, located near touristic routes, are potential loci of lyme borreliosis in these recreational areas. out of 1108 tick samples examined by the observation in dfm for the presence of spirochetes, 6.7% were positive. the highest percent of infected ticks (13.1%) was found in 2003. | 2004 | 16859033 |
