Background and Purpose Macrocyclic lactones are the most widely used broad‐spectrum anthelmintic drugs for the treatment of parasitic nematodes affecting both human and animal health. Macrocyclic lactones are agonists of the nematode glutamate‐gated chloride channels (GluCls). However, for many important nematode species, the GluCls subunit composition

CO2-fixing enzymes and phosphoenolpyruvate metabolism in the fish parasite Hysterothylacium aduncum (Ascaridoidea, Anisakidae) [PDF]
CO2 stimulates the development of many of the intestinal helminths that are able to fix CO2 by means of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK), such as Hysterothylacium aduncum. We determined the activity of CO2-fixing enzymes such as PEPCK and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPC), although no significant activity was detected for pyruvate ...

Morphological and molecular studies of Hysterothylacium thalassini third-stage larvae (Ascaridida, Raphidascarididae) in the greater lizardfish Saurida tumbil [PDF]
Hysterothylacium species are perhaps the most abundant and diverse group of marine ascaridoids. Identification of larval stages at specific levels is very problematic.

The number of moults in the egg of sealworm, Pseudoterranova decipiens (Nematoda: Ascaridoidea): an ultrastructural study [PDF]
The number of moults in the egg of sealworm, Pseudoterranova decipiens (Nematoda: Ascaridoidea), and other ascaridoids is contentious. Transmission electron microscopic analysis of eggs and free-living larvae of sealworm confirmed that only one moult ...
