Trichodectes canis (Phthiraptera: Trichodectidae) was first documented on Alaska (USA) gray wolves (Canis lupus) on the Kenai Peninsula in 1981. In subsequent years, numerous wolves exhibited visually apparent, moderate to severe infestations. Currently, the Alaska Department of Fish and Game utilizes visual inspection, histopathology, and potassium hydroxide (KOH) hide digestion for T. canis d...

background: toxocariasis is a prevalent zoonosis disease caused by the closely related nematode species toxocara canis and toxocara cati which parasitise canidae and felidae respectively. in paratenic hosts, larvae of these worms cause multiple organ damage. however, how these paratenic hosts response to these worms and whether any common biomarker can be applied for diagnosis are still unclear...

Human toxocariasis is categorized as a neglected parasitic disease by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention. The more prevalent in children than adults because are frequently exposed to eggs of T. canis cati which etiological agents human during playing outside. aim this study was research presence helminth species playgrounds Sivas using microscopic molecular techniques. For purpose, 8...

Abstract From August 17 to January 1, 2023, this investigation was carried out in the postgraduate lab at University of Kerbala. The Menthe spicata plant removed from city Karbala on July 11, 2022, and phenol component extracted ethanol alcohol menthe extract. Nanomaterials, Practical size, Zno nanoparticals (33-40nm) In order assess effectiveness various concentrations combinations zinc nanopa...

BACKGROUND Frequent exposure of Grenadian dogs to Rhipicephalus sanguineus results in Anaplasma platys, and Ehrlichia canis seroreactivity. During elective surgeries, substantial intraoperative hemorrhage occurs in some seroreactive dogs. OBJECTIVES To assess hemostatic parameters and bleeding tendencies as well as prevalence of PCR positivity in apparently healthy A. platys and E. canis sero...

Nghiên cứu được thực hiện nhằm xác định những đặc điểm và phương pháp chẩn đoán hiệu quả bệnh Ehrlichiosis do Ehrlichia canis (E. canis) gây ra trên chó. Tổng số 151 mẫu máu thu thập từ con chó nghi nhiễm E. canis. Mẫu bằng kit canis-Ab, đồng thời kiểm tra sự diện của phôi dâu tế bào bạch cầu nhuộm tiêu bản đếm lượng tiểu cầu. Kết cho thấy có 103/151 (68,21%) dương tính với canis-Ab. Tình trạng...

Brucella canis infection is an important cause of late-term abortion in pregnant bitches. The pathophysiological mechanisms leading to B. canis-induced abortion are unknown, but heavily infected trophoblasts are consistently observed. As trophoblasts responses to other pathogens contribute to placental inflammation leading to abortion, the aim of the present study was to characterize the cytoki...

During the Pleistocene, South America had several genera and species of large hypercarnivorous canids, which became completely extinct at end this epoch. This paper presents a comprehensive systematic review group (four genera, seven species) based on new cladistic analyses that include genomic information study intraspecific variation in canids. The results generated are discussed context know...

Background Brucella canis is a pathogenic bacterium that causes brucellosis in dogs, and its zoonotic potential has been increasing in recent years. B. canis is a rare source of human brucellosis in China, where Brucella melitensis has been the major pathogen associated with human brucellosis outbreaks. In late 2011, a case of a B. canis infection was detected in a human patient in Zhejiang Pro...

Parasitemia with a large Babesia species was identified in two domestic cats from Israel. One cat, also coinfected with feline immunodeficiency virus and "Candidatus Mycoplasma haemominutum," had profound icterus and anemia which resolved after therapy, whereas a second cat was an asymptomatic carrier. Amplification and sequencing of the 18S rRNA gene, followed by phylogenetic analyses, indicat...
