echinococcus vogeli in man, with a review of polycystic hydatid disease in colombia and neighboring countries. | three cases of polycystic hydatid disease (phd) from colombia are reported and 11 others from the region are reviewed. when cysts from two patients were fed to a dog and an ocelot about 250 mature and gravid specimens of echinococcus vogeli and two poorly developed strobilae, respectively, were recovered. these human cases constitute the first record of the larval stage of e. vogeli, previously known only from the strobilar stage in the type host, the bush dog (speothos venaticus). based on the ... | 1979 | 572148 |

immunoparasitological studies of trypanosoma cruzi low virulence clones from panama: humoral immune responses and antigenic cross-reactions with trypanosoma rangeli in experimentally infected mice. | the kinetics of humoral immune responses were investigated in mice experimentally infected with five clones of trypanosoma cruzi isolated from different sources in panama. sera were collected at different timepoints post-infection. elisa and iha tests were used to detect antibodies against t. cruzi epimastigote antigens. the levels of t. cruzi specific antibodies increased during the course of infection; at day 90 post-infection the range was between 1:5120 and 1:10240. a high correlation was ev ... | 1995 | 8552988 |
development of alouattamyia baeri (diptera: oestridae) from howler monkeys (primates: cebidae) on barro colorado island, panama. | the fecundity and development of larval stages of the cuterebrid bot fly a. baeri were studied in an unusual host, remotely related to the primary host. third-instar alouattamyia baeri (shannon & greene) removed from howler monkeys, alouatta palliata, were allowed to pupate and then were cultured under controlled conditions. eclosion occurred after 37.9 +/- 0.4 (mean +/- se) (male) and 38.2 +/- 0.4 (female) d at 26 degrees c. five-day-old females were mated using a tethered flight technique and ... | 1998 | 9775591 |
genetically distinct dog-derived and human-derived sarcoptes scabiei in scabies-endemic communities in northern australia. | overcrowding is a significant factor contributing to endemic infection with sarcoptes scabiei in human and animal populations. however, since scabies mites from different host species are indistinguishable morphologically, it is unclear whether people can be infected from scabies-infested animals. molecular fingerprinting was done using three s. scabiei-specific single locus hypervariable microsatellite markers, with a combined total of 70 known alleles. multilocus analysis of 712 scabies mites ... | 1999 | 10548286 |
