| phylogeny of angiostrongylus cantonensis in thailand based on cytochrome c oxidase subunit i gene sequence. | angiostrongylus cantonensis is an emerging infectious agent causing eosinophilic meningitis or meningoencephalitis in humans with clinical manifestation of severe headache. molecular genetic studies on classification and phylogeny of a. cantonensis in thailand are limited. this study surveyed a. cantonensis larvae prevalence in natural intermediate hosts across thailand and analyzed their phylogenetic relationships. a total of 14,032 freshwater and land snails were collected from 19 provinces of ... | 2016 | 27405119 |
| survey of angiostrongylus cantonensis in rats and giant african land snails in phitsanulok province, thailand. | to survey the angiostrongylus cantonensis (a. cantonensis) or the rat lungworm in a rat, definitive host, and in a giant african land snail (achatina fulica), the intermediate host, in phitsanulok, thailand. | 2011 | 21914534 |
| occurrence of the infective stage of angiostrongylus cantonensis in the yellow tree monitor (varanus bengalensis) in five provinces of thailand. | twenty-two yellow tree monitors (varanus bengalensis) were trapped and transported from 5 provinces, namely lampang, phitsanulok, kamphaeng phet, tak and prachin buri to look for the infective larvae stage of angiostrongylus cantonensis. in 4 provinces all of the yellow tree monitors were infected with the infective stage larvae of a. cantonensis altogether. twenty-one of the 22 yellow tree monitors (95.5%) in the five provinces were infected. our results of this study extend our knowledge of na ... | 1994 | 7777915 |
| cytochrome c oxidase subunit i haplotype diversity of angiostrongylus cantonensis (nematoda: angiostrongylidae). | the rat lungworm angiostrongylus cantonensis is a food-borne zoonotic parasite of public health importance worldwide. it is the primary etiologic agent of eosinophilic meningitis and eosinophilic meningoencephalitis in humans in many countries. it is highly endemic in thailand especially in the northeast region. in this study, a. cantonensis adult worms recovered from the lungs of wild rats in different geographical regions/provinces in thailand were used to determine their haplotype by means of ... | 2017 | 28347653 |
