| development of trichosomoides nasalis (nematoda: trichinelloidea) in the murid host: evidence for larval growth in striated muscle fibres. | trichosomoides nasalis (trichinelloidea) is a parasite of arvicanthis niloticus (muridae) in senegal. female worms that harbour dwarf males in their uteri, occur in the epithelium of the nasal mucosa. young laboratory-bred a. niloticus were either fed females containing larvated eggs or intraperitoneally injected with motile first-stage larvae recovered from female uteri. both resulted in successful infection. organs examined during rodent necropsy were blood and lymphatic circulatory systems (h ... | 2012 | 22314237 |
