repeated low-level infection of white-tailed deer with parelaphostrongylus andersoni.two white-tailed deer (odocoileus virginianus) were given 5 infective larvae of parelaphostrongylus andersoni each weekday for 13 weeks. at 23 weeks one of these deer and a control were challenged with single doses of 200 third-stage larvae. repeated low-level infection of p. andersoni resulted in a sustained leukocytosis with an absolute eosinophilia which declined only after administration of larvae ceased, partial failure of worms to become established in the musculature, reduced numbers and ...1977592052
experimental parelaphostrongylus andersoni infections in white-tailed deer.gross and microscopic lesions caused by parelaphostrongylus andersoni were studied in white-tailed deer (odocoileus virginianus) infected with large (1000 or 5000) and moderate (200-356) numbers of third-stage larvae. in heavy infections, adult worms caused eosinophilic myositis in the loin and thigh. masses of eosinophils underwent caseous necrosis surrounded by a granulomatous border. adult worms, eggs, and larvae were in the lesions. muscle damage caused by moderate doses was slight. one deer ...1976982753
a search for parelaphostrongylus andersoni in white-tailed deer from maine.longissimus dorsi muscles from 42 white-tailed deer (odocoileus virginianus) from maine (usa) were examined for the parelaphostrongylus andersoni. no adult nematodes were found. prevalence based on the poisson approximation of a binomial distribution could have been between 0 and 9% (95% c.i.). however, based on prevalence documented elsewhere (10 to 18%), it is unlikely that p. andersoni occurs in white-tailed deer in central maine.19921602587
parelaphostrongylus andersoni (nematoda: protostrongylidae) in white-tailed deer from michigan.dorsal-spined larvae in fecal samples from free-ranging white-tailed deer (odocoileus virginianus) in michigan and pennsylvania were used as a source of larvae to infect a hand-raised white-tailed deer fawn. the fawn receive 200 third-stage larvae and passed dorsal-spined larvae in feces 66 days later. muscleworm (parelaphostrongylus andersoni), and meningeal worm (parelaphostrongylus tenuis) were recovered at necropsy. two white-tailed deer and seven wapiti (cervus elaphus) exposed to larvae of ...19902250330
efficacy of ivermectin against parelaphostrongylus andersoni (nematoda, metastrongyloidea) in white-tailed deer (odocoileus virginianus).ivermectin was injected subcutaneously at 200 and 400 micrograms/kg of body weight into seven white-tailed deer (odocoileus virginianus) in an attempt to control the muscle nematode parelaphostrongylus andersoni. counts of first-stage larvae in feces dropped to zero at 17 to 18 days posttreatment. larvae reappeared in feces 1.5 to 6 wk later in six deer. four deer were treated again approximately 9 wk after the first treatment; larval counts dropped to zero in 12 to 18 days. larvae reappeared in ...19883411705

parelaphostrongylus andersoni (nematoda: protostrongylidae) and p. odocoilei in two cervid definitive hosts.infectivity (as percentage of initial dose), location, orientation, and productivity (as maximum weekly larval output) of adult parelaphostrongylus andersoni prestwood, 1972 and p. odocoilei (hobmaier and hobmaier, 1934) were compared in white-tailed deer (odocoileus virginianus) (wtd) and mule deer (odocoileus hemionus) (md). fourteen wtd and 10 md were exposed to third-stage larvae of p. andersoni or p. odocoilei. infectivity was 20% and 31%, respectively, in 7 wtd and 4 md exposed to p. ander ...19846502355
serological diagnosis of parelaphostrongylus tenuis infection in white-tailed deer and identification of a potentially unique parasite antigen.serological diagnosis of parelaphostrongylus tenuis infection should offer many advantages over the currently used method of fecal analysis that relies on a patent infection. toward this end, we investigated the presence of p. tenuis-specific antibodies in experimentally infected white-tailed deer (wtd) and of unique p. tenuis antigens that may be exploited for serodiagnosis. wtd infected with 6, 20 or 100-150 p. tenuis third-stage larvae (l3) had anti-parasite antibodies from as early as 21 day ...199910207376
bighorn sheep, a new host record for parelaphostrongylus odocoilei (nematoda: protostrongylidae).larval nematodes with a dorsal spine on the tail were recovered from fecal samples of california bighorn sheep (ovis canadensis californiana) in northeastern washington state, usa. the identity of these dorsal-spined larvae (dsl) was established by single-strand conformation polymorphism (sscp) analyses of a partial fragment of the first internal transcribed spacer of the ribosomal dna. the sscp profiles of individual dsl from bighorn sheep were compared with those of dsl of five protostrongylid ...200617255460
muscleworms, parelaphostrongylus andersoni (nematoda: protostrongylidae), discovered in columbia white-tailed deer from oregon and washington: implications for biogeography and host associations.parelaphostrongylus andersoni is considered a characteristic nematode infecting white-tailed deer (odocoileus virginianus). host and geographic distribution for this parasite, however, remain poorly defined in the region of western north america. fecal samples collected from columbia white-tailed deer (o. v. leucurus) in a restricted range endemic to oregon and washington, usa, were examined for dorsal-spined larvae characteristic of many protostrongylid nematodes. multilocus dna sequence data ( ...200818263818
a nearctic parasite in a palearctic host: parelaphostrongylus andersoni (nematoda; protostrongylidae) infecting semi-domesticated reindeer in alaska.parelaphostrongylus andersoni is a muscle-dwelling protostrongylid nematode that infects caribou and white-tailed deer across north america, and can cause significant muscular and pulmonary pathology in these species. we collected 44 fecal samples from semi-domesticated reindeer (rangifer tarandus tarandus) from the kakarak herd of western seward peninsula, alaska, usa. this herd has no record of historical contact and extremely limited possibility of contemporary contact with native grant's car ...201324533324
