The Relationship of Baylisascaris procyonis to Illinois Raccoons (Procyon lotor)

The Journal of Parasitology, 1985
The gastrointestinal tracts of 310 steel-trapped or hunter shot Illinois raccoons (Procyon lotor) were collected in November and December 1979 and 1980 and examined for the presence of Baylisascaris procyonis (Nematoda) in order to determine the prevalence and intensity of this ascarid and to note any differences with respect to host age and sex.

Baylisascaris procyonis and eimerian infections in raccoons

Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 1982
SUMMARY Twenty-eight raccoons from Columbus, Ohio, were surveyed for intestinal parasites. Baylisascaris procyonis was found in 7, trichurid eggs in 2, capillarid eggs in 8, trichostrongyloid eggs in 9, and Eimeria procyonis oocysts in 23. Meronts, gamonts, and oocysts of E procyonis were found in epithelial cells at the tips of the villi of small ...

Treatment of Baylisascaris procyonis infections in dogs with milbemycin oxime

Veterinary Parasitology, 2005
An examination was made as to the ability of Sentinel Flavor Tabs (milbemycin oxime/lufenuron) to treat Baylisascaris procyonis infections in dogs. The study was designed as a critical trial and included five naturally infected dogs and two dogs that were experimentally infected.

Pcr Assays for Detection of Baylisascaris procyonis Eggs and Larvae

Journal of Parasitology, 2009
The objective of this study was to develop polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays for detection of Baylisascaris procyonis eggs and larvae in fecal, environmental, and tissue samples. We have optimized conventional and real-time PCR assays for B. procyonis using the mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase 2 gene as the target for amplification.

Diffuse Retinochoroiditis due to Baylisascaris procyonis in Monglian Gerbils

Journal of Parasitology, 2003
Baylisascaris procyonis, raccoon roundworm, causes a severe retinal lesion in humans. The lesion is termed as diffuse unilateral subacute neuroretinitis (DUSN). To understand the pathogenesis of B. procyonis in gerbils, we inoculated 17 embryonated eggs/g body weight of B.

Experimental Cerebrospinal Nematodiasis Due to Baylisascaris procyonis in Chickens

Avian Diseases, 1983
Avian cerebrospinal nematodiasis was studied in chickens experimentally inoculated with infective eggs of Baylisascaris procyonis of raccoon origin. Birds each received 3,200, 1,600, 800, 400, 200, or 0 eggs, one dose per group of 10 birds. Central nervous system (CNS) disease developed in 17 of the 50 infected birds. Birds receiving the higher dosages

Scanning Electron Microscopy of the Labia of Baylisascaris procyonis (Nematoda)

The Journal of Parasitology, 1982
The labial organization of adult Baylisascaris procyonis was studied by scanning electron microscopy, and found to be similar for males and females. The apical part of each lip was smooth, and the basal part reticulated. The dorsal lip possessed two dorsolateral double papillae and two internal labial papillae; the two subventral lips each had one ...

Prevalence of Baylisascaris procyonis in raccoon latrines in southern Ontario, Canada

Veterinary Parasitology: Regional Studies and Reports, 2020
Raccoon latrines represent sites of potential infection by the zoonotic parasite Baylisascaris procyonis for wildlife and humans. Our objective was to determine the prevalence of B. procyonis at raccoon latrine sites in southern Ontario. Thirty raccoon latrines were sampled between June - July 2018; multiple scats were collected and homogenized to form

Baylisascaris procyonis for Testing Anthelmintics Against Migratory Ascarids

American Journal of Veterinary Research, 1978
SUMMARY Oral inoculation of mice with 340 embryonated eggs of the nematode, Baylisascaris procyonis, proved uniformly fatal as early as 13 days after inoculation and as late as 48 days. Mice given either 0.5% or 0.25% of pyrantel tartrate in dry feed were protected from cerebral migrations of the worm for 55 days. Treatment with pyrantel pamoate in the

Baylisascaris Procyonis Exposure Case Study.

The West Virginia medical journal, 2018
We report a case of exposure to raccoon feces found to be contaminated with baylisascaris procyonis. The exposure was recognized early enough by the family to allow prophylaxis with albendazole. Because of the potential fatal or neurologically catastrophic effects of this disease immediate treatment is indicated.
