| the prevalence of sarcosporidiosis in australian meat animals. | the prevalence of sarcocystis infectious in tasmanian sheep, cattle and pigs was assessed during february 1974. serological results indicated that over 90% of sheep and cattle were infected. macroscopic sarcocysts were found in 0.6% of lambs, 8.8% of 2- to 6-tooth (1 to 4 years old) sheep and 66% of full-mouth (4 years and older) sheep. the minimum prevalence in pigs, as determined by microscopic examination of muscle tissues, was 1.4% for animals less than 12 months old and 16.7% for animals ol ... | 1975 | 812465 |

| enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays for detecting antibody to rickettsia australis in sera of various animal species. | new endemic areas of spotted fever-like rickettsial disease have been found in south-eastern australia (gippsland, victoria and flinders island, tasmania). the rickettsia responsible is currently unknown although it may be rickettsia australis. to investigate serological evidence of rickettsial exposure in various wild animal species, a competitive elisa was developed which detected antibodies to r. australis. it was based on inhibition of an indirect elisa detecting antibody to r. australis in ... | 1990 | 2292182 |
| taxonomy of trichinella and the epidemiology of infection in the southeast asia and australian regions. | seven species belonging to the trichinella genus (five with encapsulated larvae and two with non-encapsulated larvae in host muscles) and three additional genotypes have been described to date: t. spiralis (genotype t1), a cosmopolitan species with a high infectivity to swine and rats; t. nativa (t2), etiological agent of sylvatic trichinellosis in arctic and subarctic areas of the holarctic region, and its related genotype (trichinella t6), detected in alaska, idaho, montana, pennsylvania, wyom ... | 2001 | 12041576 |
| spotted fever group rickettsial infection in south-eastern australia: isolation of rickettsiae. | flinders island spotted fever (fisf), a spotted fever group (sfg) rickettsial disease first described in 1991, occurs in south-eastern australia. the isolation of the aetiological agent is described for the first time having been obtained from the blood of two patients. an additional 22 cases are also reported. of these patients four had positive initial serology, and 20 showed seroconversion (using rickettsia australis as antigen). acute phase blood specimens taken from seven patients caused ne ... | 1993 | 8403837 |
