cestode infections in korea.epidemiological surveys concerning cestodes of medical importance in korea have been sporadically reported by many workers. among various parasitic infections, cestode infections occur less frequently than other helminthiases, but they often cause serious clinical complications. cestodes reported so far in korea belong to the order pseudophyllidea or cyclophyllidea (subclass cestoda), i.e., diphyllobothrium latum, d. yonagoense, spirometra erinacei, sparganum, hymenolepis diminuta, h. nana, meso ...19902133417
diphyllobothriasis: fish tapeworm disease in the circumpolar north.although fish tapeworm infections in arctic and subarctic residents are often attributed to the cestode diphyllobothrium latum, other diphyllobothrium species are frequently responsible. d. dendriticum, for example, occurs throughout the circumpolar area at high latitudes beyond the range of d. latum. several additional species are also implicated in human infections in northern communities bordering the pacific: d. ursi from northern canada and alaska, d. dalliae from alaska and siberia, and d. ...19912021393
current status of food-borne parasitic zoonoses in west germany.the present status of food-borne parasitic zoonoses in west germany is characterized by a relatively high frequency of toxoplasmosis, sarcocystosis and taenia saginata infections. from empirical data it can be estimated that 4% of the german population become infected per year by toxoplasma gondii as well as by sarcocystis species (s. hominis, s. suihominis). the number of t. saginata infected persons is reckoned at 900,000, which is equal to an average prevalence of 1.5%. due to meat inspection ...19911822942
an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for diagnostic detection of taenia saginata copro-antigens in humans.an immunodiagnostic sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (elisa) was developed for the detection of soluble taenia saginata antigens in stool samples (copro-antigens) of infected humans, using affinity-purified polyclonal antibodies obtained from rabbits hyperimmunized with excretory/secretory antigens derived from t. saginata maintained in vitro. investigation of operating characteristics showed very low cross-reactivity with crude antigens from helminths other than taenia, including dipy ...19911719664
