The Breeding of Bulinus truncatus in Total Darkness
Journal of Helminthology, 1961Starting with eggs from a natural habitat the authors were able to raise and breed Bulinus truncatus, the snail vector of schistosomiasis haematobia, under conditions of total and continuous darkness and to complete the life-cycle from egg to egg in 70 days. The rearing of a second generation was interrupted by circumstances beyond the authors’ control.

Experimental Infection of Bulinus truncatus with Schistosoma haematobium
The Journal of Parasitology, 1953establishment of the complete life cycle of the parasite under laboratory conditions. An active breeding colony of the suitable snail host must be established to provide a reliable source of snails for exposure to miracidia at regular intervals so as to insure a steady supply of cercariae for animal infections.

Molluscicidal activity against Bulinus truncatus of Croton campestris
Fitoterapia, 2006The bark of Croton campestris provided three furano-clerodane named, respectively, velamone, velamolone acetate and velamolone. Fractions containing these diterpenoids were investigated for their molluscicidal activity against Bulinus truncatus, one of the aquatic snail vectors of schistosomiasis.

Schistosomiasis is a snail-born, neglected tropical disease (NTD) caused by blood flukes (trematode worms) of the genusSchistosoma. It is the second most socioeconomically devastating parasitic disease after malaria. Urogenital schistosomiasis is caused by Schistosoma haematobium which is transmitted by snail intermediate host of the genus Bulinus ...

Urea: inhibitor of growth and reproduction in Bulinus truncatus
Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part A: Physiology, 1994Abstract This study reports the isolation and identification of a population inhibitory substance found in cultures of Bulinus truncatus rohlfsi, a snail host of the human blood fluke, Schistosoma haematobium. A variety of isolation procedures, including extractions with organic solvents and size exclusion chromatography, was carried out. To identify

[Bulinus truncatus, Planorbarius metidjensis and endemic bilharziosis in the southwestern Morocco].
Bulletin de la Societe de pathologie exotique (1990), 2007Since Planorbarius metidjensis was recently found to be an experimental intermediate host of Schistosoma haematobium in the South-West of Morocco, a study on planorbid and B. truncatus was carried out from 1997 to 2005. Eleven planorbid populations were identified in 1997 in the Agadir province, all living at high altitude (from 340 to 1380 m).

Investigation was made into some aspects of biology and population parameters of Bulinus globosus and Bulinus truncatus which are snails implicated in the transmission of urinary schistosomiasis in Agulu Lake Area of Anambra state, Nigeria. These snails were collected from the lake and reared in the laboratory.

RESOURCE ALLOCATION AND STRESSFUL CONDITIONS IN THE APHALLIC SNAILBULINUS TRUNCATUS
Ecology, 1998An important parameter in the evolution of sexual polymorphisms in hermaphroditic organisms is the way resources are allocated to male and female functions by various morphs. Detecting differences in allocation between morphs may not always be possible under optimal conditions and may require stressful conditions.

Miracidial infectivity of snail host (Bulinus truncatus) in the laboratory
Nigerian Journal of Parasitology, 2008Miracidial infectivity rate of snail Bulinus truncatus collected from Agulu Lake was studied in the laboratory. The snails were maintained in the laboratory and eggs deposited were allowed to hatch and dates noted until snails of different ages were produced.
