Incidental findings of Cysticercus tenuicollis metacestodes in five oryx species

Characterization of immunogenic proteins of Cysticercus tenuicollis of goats

Aim: To identify immunodominant proteins of cystic fluid antigens and whole cyst lysate antigens of Cysticercus tenuicollis, the larval stage of the canine tapeworm Taenia hydatigena. Materials and Methods: Three numbers of cysts of C. tenuicollis were collected from the mesentry of small intestine of goats after slaughter. C. tenuicollis cysts of each sample were washed thoroughly with PBS (pH...

Some of the metacestodes are not only zoonotic but are also responsible for severe tissue damage, reduction in milk and meat production, and considerable economic loss due to condemnation of the infected organs of the herbivorous animals. The aim of the present study was to determine the prevalence of Cysticercus ovis, Cysticercus tenuicollis, hydatid cyst and Coenurus gaigeri in sheep and goat...

Epidemiological Survey and Phylogenetic Characterization of Cysticercus tenuicollis Isolated from Tibetan Pigs in Tibet, China

Cysticercus tenuicollis, commonly known as "water bell," is a larva of Taenia hydatigena, which is the most significant parasite of pigs. However, until now very few information is available regarding the prevalence and genetic characterization of the Cysticercus tenuicollis in Tibetan pigs. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence and phylogenetic analysis of Cysticer...
