Abstract Background and purpose: Toxocariasis is a worldwide zoonotic disease with high eosinophil count caused by Toxocara (T.canis and T. cati(. The aim of the present study was to determine the seroprevalence of Toxocara IgG antibody among healthy adult individuals with over 10% eosinophilia count who referred to Health center of Babol and also to find out the risk factors associated with...
There is not any document evidence of Toxocara infection in the west Iran. Soil transmitted helminthes, particularly Ascaris lumbricoides, are common in this region, thus it is assumed toxocariasis be prevalent in the area. A study carried out between June to November 1993 in Hamadan, west of Iran in co-operation of dog destroying team of Hamadan municipality. A total of 60 stray of dogs dest...
Toxocariasis is a helminthozoonosis due to the infection of humans with larvae belonging to the Toxocara genus. Humans become infected as a result of accidental consumption of infected eggs containing third stage larvae (L3) nematodes from Toxocara canis or Toxocara cati species. Toxocariasis was recognized for the first time in the early 1950s, and the first cases of toxocariasis in Poland wer...
BACKGROUND Dogs are the most common pet animals worldwide. They may harbour a wide range of parasites with zoonotic potential, thus causing a health risk to humans. In Nigeria, epidemiological knowledge on these parasites is limited. METHODS In a community-based study, we examined 396 dogs in urban and rural areas of Ilorin (Kwara State, Central Nigeria) for ectoparasites and intestinal helmi...
Seroepidemiology of Toxocara canis infection among adults of one ethnic Han and five aboriginal populations residing in mountainous areas of Taiwan was conducted by detecting serum IgG (>/=1:64) using a T. canis larval excretory-secretory antigen-based enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. A short questionnaire interview was conducted to obtain data concerning their age, sex, occupation, consumpti...
Toxocariasis is an infection that has worldwide distribution. Toxocara canis is the most relevant agent due to its frequent occurrence in humans. Soil contamination with embryonated eggs is the primary source of T. canis. This study aimed to determine the seroprevalence of toxocariasis in 10-month to 3 year-old abandoned infants, considered to be at high risk because of their orphanhood status ...
Background & Aim: Human toxocariasis is a helminthozoonosis due to the migration of toxocara species larvae into human organism. Humans, specially children become infected by ingesting either embryonated eggs from soil, dirty hands, raw vegetables, or larvae from undercooked organ of paratenic hosts such as chicken, cattle and sheep. Three clinical forms of toxocariasis are described includ...
The protective effect of infectious agents against allergic reactions has been thoroughly investigated. Current studies have demonstrated the ability of some helminths to modulate the immune response of infected hosts. The objective of the present study was to investigate the relationship between Toxocara canis infection and the development of an allergic response in mice immunised with ovalbum...
Soil contamination by embryonic eggs of Toxocara canis is the main source of human infection by this ascarid larvae resulting, sometimes, in the occurrence of visceral larva migrans syndrome. The objective of the present research is to determine the frequency of T. canis eggs in soil samples monthly collected in nine public places, located at the South Region of São Paulo municipality in a 18-m...
