Optimized conditions for thein vitroexcystment ofCalicophoron daubneyimetacercariae [PDF]
AbstractParamphistomosis, caused byCalicophoron daubneyi, is an emerging infection of ruminants throughout Western Europe. Despite its prevalence, many questions remain regarding the basic biology of this parasite and how it interacts with its host. Consequently, there is a need to develop methods to studyC.

Calicophoron daubneyi (Paramphistomidae) in slaughtered cattle in Castilla y León (Spain) [PDF]
The prevalence and aetiology of natural paramphistomosis was investigated in cattle slaughtered in the Castilla y León region (Spain) over a 3 year-period. The overall prevalence of positive animals was 6.20%. The parasite burden per animal ranged from 8 to 8005 (median=144) and the ruminal atrium had the highest parasite burden whereas the ruminal ...

Establishment of the complete life cycle of Calicophoron daubneyi under experimental conditions [PDF]
The complex life cycle of the rumen fluke Calicophoron daubneyi is similar to that of the liver fluke Fasciola hepatica. Interestingly, C. daubneyi and F. hepatica share the same intermediate host, Galba truncatula. However, in contrast to its relative, experimental production of metacercariae is a major challenge for C.

Exploration of factors associated with spatial-temporal veterinary surveillance diagnoses of rumen fluke (Calicophoron daubneyi) infections in ruminants using zero-inflated mixed modelling. [PDF]
Rumen fluke (Calicophoron daubneyi) has emerged as a prominent parasite of ruminants in Europe over the past decades. Epidemiological questions remain regarding this observed increase in prevalence as well as the prospect for future paramphistomosis risk.

Immunohistochemical study and mRNA cytokine profile of the local immune response in cattle naturally infected with Calicophoron daubneyi [PDF]
In order to recognize the local immune response of the definitive host to Calicophoron daubneyi natural infection, an immunohistochemical study was carried out in the reticulum and rumen in 49 naturally infected cattle. The role of cytokines (IL-4 and IL-10 interleukins and IFN-γ) in the activation of specific defence mechanisms was evaluated by ...

New insights into trematode infections in cattle and their snail intermediate hosts in a Mediterranean area of Italy [PDF]
This study investigated snails collected from eleven cattle farms in a Mediterranean area of southern Italy, where Fasciola hepatica (liver fluke) and Calicophoron daubneyi (rumen fluke) are known to occur.

Study on the Vector Role for Calicophoron daubneyi of Some Aquatic Snails form Western Romania
In the last decade, Calicophoron daubneyi parasites have been found in animals in many European countries. Its development and spread are predicated on the presence of numerous intermediate hosts, but mainly on the presence of the aquatic snail Galba ...

The effect of naturally acquired rumen fluke infection on animal health and production in dairy and beef cattle in the UK [PDF]
The incidence of paramphistomosis, caused by the rumen fluke, Calicophoron daubneyi, has greatly increased within Europe in the last 15–20 years. However, the production impacts of this disease are poorly understood.
