Larval recovery of Toxocara cati in experimentally infected Rattus norvegicus and analysis of the rat as potential reservoir for this ascarid.
Toxocara cati is a common feline parasite transmitted by the ingestion of embryonated eggs, by the transmammary route or by predation of paratenic hosts harbouring third-stage larvae in their bodies. In the present study, the larval distribution of T. cati in tissues and organs of Rattus norvegicus experimentally infected with 300 embryonated eggs was analysed. Third-stage larvae were recovered...
متن کاملMigration Routes of Toxocara Canis and Toxocara Cati in Tissues of Experimentally Infected Rattus Norvegicus
Toxocariasis is currently considered an important zoonosis in many countries and is usually attributed to larvae of Toxocara canis Werner, 1782 but less frequently, T. cat. This study attempts to compare the migration routes followed by T. canis and Toxocara cati (Schrank, 1788) in Rattus norvegicus Berkenhout, 1769 and to determine the percentage of larvae recovered in each organ of experiment...
متن کاملLarval recovery of Toxocara canis in organs and tissues of experimentally infected Rattus norvegicus.
The aim of this note was to record for the first time the recovery of Toxocara canis larvae from tissues and organs of Rattus norvegicus (Berkenhout, 1769), Wistar strain, until the 60th day after experimental infection. Rats were orally infected with embryonated T. canis eggs, killed on days 3, 5, 8, 10, 15, 30, and 60 after inoculation and larvae were recovered from liver, lungs, kidneys, bra...

متن کاملBehavioral changes in Rattus norvegicus experimentally infected by Toxocara canis larvae.
Toxocara canis is a common canine nematode parasite and one of its possible transmission mechanisms is the predation of infected rodents by canids. Fifty Rattus norvegicus were used to study behavioral alterations in rodents infected by T. canis larvae. The rats were divided into three groups: G1, 20 rats infected with 300 T. canis eggs; G2, 20 rats infected with 2,000 T. canis eggs; and G3, 10...
