The prevalence of the digenean Plagiorchis sp. was investigated in a natural wood mouse population (Apodemus sylvaticus) in a periaquatic environment. Classical identification was complemented with the use of molecular differentiation to determine...

Echinococcus granulosus is an important zoonotic infection of dogs. The purpose of the present study assessed the performance of two laboratory diagnostic methods with arecoline purgation and necropsy in infected dogs. In total 65 dogs were successfu...

Prevalence of zoonotic important parasites in the red fox (Vulpes vulpes) in Great Britain. (2003)
Journal Article
GC, S., B, G., Z, T., MK, L., H, B., G, H., …PS, C. (2003). Prevalence of zoonotic important parasites in the red fox (Vulpes vulpes) in Great Britain. Veterinary Parasitology, 118(1-2), 133-142. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.vetpar.2003.09.017

A national necropsy survey of red foxes was carried out across Great Britain to record Echinococcus, Trichinella and Toxoplasma. The survey did not record directly, or indirectly using coproantigen/PCR tests, evidence for the presence of Echinococcus...

A rapid dot-ELISA was developed for the detection of specific antigens in samples of cyst fluid from human cases of Echinococcus granulosus infection, permitting the confirmation of cystic echinococcosis (CE). Peroxidase-conjugated antibodies against... Read More about Rapid dot-ELISA for the detection of specific antigens in the cyst fluid from human cases of cystic echinococcosis..
