The aim of this work is to analyze whether there is a seasonal prevalence of parasites in dog feces from public squares in Mar del Plata city, Argentina, and to evaluate the climatic conditions that promote the development of parasites and allow the transmission to people. The study was performed in 21 squares from June 2001 to May 2002. Samples were processed by the Willis technique. Differenc...

Ancylostoma caninum is a common canine parasite responsible for anemia and death in infected dogs. Gene expression profiling was used to investigate molecular differences between two different forms of the third larval stage (L3s): infective free-living larvae and in vitro serum-stimulated larvae that mimic the initial stages of parasitism of a host. We developed an A. caninum cDNA microarray c...

AIM This study was undertaken to derive the prevalence rate of ancylostomosis in dogs by a collection of fecal samples from Anand district. MATERIALS AND METHODS The fecal samples were collected from the dogs brought to the Hospital of Veterinary College (Teaching Veterinary Clinical Service Complex) and the surrounding areas of Anand district. On the day of collection, fecal samples were col...

No período de janeiro a março do ano 2023, em um centro veterinário, foram aplicados 75 questionários para tutores cães e gatos acerca conhecimento das verminoses que acometem seus animais companhia após encaminharam as fezes desses realização exame coproparasitológico. Dentre os resultados obtidos notou-se proprietários possuem baixo sobre (formas transmissão, potencial zoonótico, tratamentos,...

When given to sheep as a single oral dose at 0.1 mg/kg, the B(1a) component of the avermectins caused a reduction of >95% in the numbers of Haemonchus contortus, Ostertagia circumcincta (including inhibited L(4) larvae), Trichostrongylus axei, Trichostrongylus colubriformis, Cooperia oncophora, and Oesophagostomum columbianum. When given to cattle as a single oral dose at 0.1 mg/kg, avermectin ...

The overall goal of this study was to estimate the prevalence of gastrointestinal (GI) parasites in dogs in the city of Villahermosa in Tabasco, Mexico. The study population consisted of 302 owned dogs that had limited access to public areas. A fecal sample was collected from each animal and examined for GI parasites by conventional macroscopic analysis and centrifugal flotation. Fecal samples ...

The worldwide prevalence of geohelminths and their unique place in evolutionary biology have attracted research focus. These major soiltransmitted intestinal nematodes that cause human diseases are the nematode roundworm (Ascaris lumbricoides), the whipworm (Trichuris trichiura) and the two hookworms (Ancylostoma duodenale and Necator americanus), often collectively referred as geohelminths. St...

Immune-mediated haemolytic anaemia (IMHA) may be primary or secondary. In primary IMHA, no underlying cause can be found, whereas secondary IMHA is triggered by an underlying cause, such as neoplasia, infectious diseases, or drugs. This paper describes 3 dogs with typical signs of IMHA that was possibly associated with the intestinal parasite Ancylostoma caninum. As intestinal helminths can be ...
