Pharmacology of anthelmintic resistance
Parasitology, 1996 SUMMARYAnthelmintic resistance has compromised the control of nematode parasites in several animal-based industries. Studies of resistance have not only improved our understanding of this phenomenon but also shed light on physiological systems of parasitic helminths.

Zoo Biology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The emergence of anthelminthic resistance is a well‐documented phenomenon in livestock and companion animals. Given the scarcity of new antiparasitic drugs, the implementation of effective, holistic anthelminthic control strategies is critical to preserving the efficacy of existing treatments.

Anthelmintic resistance in sheep nematodes in Australia: a compilation of recent test results
Australian Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.Objective The results of recent faecal egg count reduction tests (FECRTs) were collated to provide an indication of the prevalence and severity of anthelmintic resistance in sheep nematodes across Australia and of changes in comparison to earlier testing reports.

Journal of Parasitology Research, 2022 Gastrointestinal parasites and their anthelmintic resistance are major constraints to goat production in Ethiopia. Experimental investigation by faecal egg count reduction test (FECRT) and larval cultures were used to assess the occurrence of ...

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.Targeted Selective Treatment (TST) can reduce the rate of resistance development in livestock gastrointestinal nematodes but can also reduce the effects of anthelmintics on non‐target organisms. Most studies of non‐target anthelmintic effects focus on beneficial species.

Electrophysiological investigation of anthelmintic resistance
Parasitology, 2000 It is pointed out that two of the three major groups of anthelmintic act by opening membrane ion-channels. It is appropriate, therefore, to use electrophysiological methods to study the properties of the sites of action of these drugs and the changes in the properties of these receptor sites associated with resistance. This paper describes the use of

Sustainable control of cyathostomin infections in practice
Equine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.Summary Cyathostomins are the most prevalent helminths in horses and are found in nearly all grazing groups. These parasites have been shown to exhibit widespread anthelmintic resistance and can cause clinical disease, so they are a growing concern.

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2019 The anthelmintic treatment of nematode infections remains the pillar of worm control in both human and veterinary medicine. Since control is threatened by the appearance of drug resistant nematodes, there is a need to develop novel compounds, among which
