REINECKE, R. K. Studies on Haemonchus contortus l. The influence of previous exposure to Trichostrongylus axei on infestation with H . cantor/us. Onderstepoort J. vet. Res. 41 (4) , 213216 (1974) . A group of Merino sheep, aged 67 months was infested orally with 50 000 infective larvae of Trichostrongylus axei. This group and a control group were challenged 9092 days later with 50 000 infective...

BACKGROUND Haemonchus contortus causes severe economic losses in small ruminants, so this study was conducted to study the UV effect on H. contortus larvae and its protective effect. METHODS Sixteen male goats were divided into 5 groups, control infected, control uninfected and UV 30 minutes exposure; UV 60 minutes exposure and UV booster 60 minutes exposure. The UV groups were exposed to UV ...

The course of infection with a Malaysian dog strain of Ancylostoma ceylanicum was investigated in 15 inbred strains of mice, in outbred and inbred mice immunosuppressed with prednisolone, and in immunodeficient hypothymic mice. Oral, percutaneous and subcutaneous routes of infection, in both sexes of mice, were assessed. In only one instance was a single small adult male worm found. Following o...

Dracunculiasis (guinea worm disease) is a parasitic disease that is limited to remote, rural villages in 13 sub-Saharan African countries that do not have access to safe drinking water. It is one the next diseases targeted for eradication by the World Health Organization. Guinea worm disease is transmitted by drinking water containing copepods (water fleas) that are infected with Dracunculiasis...

The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans is an important model organism for biomedical research and genetic studies relevant to human biology and disease. Such studies are often based on high-resolution imaging of dynamic biological processes in the worm body tissues, requiring well-immobilized and physiologically active animals in order to avoid movement-related artifacts and to obtain meaningful b...

Where the data that has been obtained described or as it without intending make conclusions apply public generalizations. Then can made tabular form acco...

Ascariasis is an important infection in humans (Ascaris lumbricoides) and pigs (Ascaris suum) and individuals appear to be predisposed to either heavy or light worm burdens. These extremes of susceptibility and resistance are represented in a mouse model by 2 strains of mice, CBA mice showing high resistance to infection and C57BL/6 which are highly susceptible, as reflected in worm burdens in ...
