Uptake of albendazole and albendazole sulphoxide by Haemonchus contortus and Fasciola hepatica in sheep.

The efficacy of a slow-release albendazole capsule against <i>Haemonchus contortus</i> with known resistance to albendazole.

Controlled-release albendazole capsules (CRCs) are currently registered for use in Australia and New Zealand as anthelmintic treatment in sheep. However, reports on the efficacy of such products on resistant parasite populations are sometimes controversial. This is the first study to report on the efficacy of such products under South African field conditions in sheep harbouring a population of...

Identification of a field isolate of Fasciola hepatica resistant to albendazole and 1 susceptible

Assessment of flukicide efficacy against Fasciola hepatica in sheep in Sweden in the absence of a standardised test

Anthelmintic resistance (AR) to Fasciola hepatica is emerging worldwide. Recently, AR to the adulticide compound albendazole (ABZ) was shown in Argentina and Spain. In Sweden, ABZ treatment failure against F. hepatica was first reported in sheep in 2012. The present study tested the efficacy of ABZ and triclabendazole (TCBZ) in sheep naturally infected with F. hepatica using a combination of th...

Multivariate spatially-structured variability of ovine helminth infections.

A cross-sectional survey was carried out on 2004-2005 in the Campania region, southern Italy, to study the multivariate geographical distribution of four different sheep helminths, i.e. Fasciola hepatica (liver fluke), Calicophoron (Paramphistomum) daubneyi (rumen fluke), Dicrocoelium dendriticum (lancet fluke), and the gastrointestinal strongyle Haemonchus contortus. A series of multivariate B...
