A contribution to the diagnosis of Capillaria hepatica infection by indirect immunofluorescence test
A highly specific pattern of immunofluorescence was noted when sera from Capillaria hepatica-infected rats were tested against the homologous worms and eggs present either in paraffin or cryostat sections from mouse liver.

Immunological tolerance to pig-serum partially inhibits the formation of septal fibrosis of the liver in Capillaria hepatica-infected rats [PDF]
Systhematized septal fibrosis of the liver can be induced in rats either by repeated intraperitoneal injections of pig-serum or by Capillaria hepatica infection.

Capillaria hepatica-induced hepatic fibrosis in rats: paradoxical effect of repeated infections
Multiple exposures to parasitic agents are considered an important factor in the genesis of the most severe forms of the diseases they cause. Capillaria hepatica-induced septal fibrosis of the liver in rats usually runs without signs of portal ...

Immunological basis of septal fibrosis of the liver in Capillaria hepatica-infected rats
Rats infected with the helminth Capillaria hepatica regularly develop septal fibrosis of the liver similar to that induced by repeated ip injections of pig serum.

Gastrointestinal Helminth Infections in Captive Wild Animals of Bangladesh: Implications for Zoo Health Management and Zoonotic Risk. [PDF]
Gastrointestinal helminth (GIH) infections remain a significant but undercharacterized threat to captive wildlife health and may contribute to zoonotic transmission at the human–animal interface, particularly in Bangladesh, where zoological facilities are located near densely populated urban centers.

Monitoring Pathogens in Free-Living Large Herbivores in a Nature Reserve in the Netherlands. [PDF]
Monitoring and surveillance of pathogens are crucial for safeguarding animal and public health. While passive surveillance is more common for wild and free‐living animals, active monitoring improves the detection and characterisation of specific pathogens relevant to animal and public health.

Investigation of the Occurrence of Zoonotic Intestinal Parasites along the Karmanasa River Bank in Lalitpur, Nepal. [PDF]
Summary • Twenty‐one intestinal zoonotic parasites out of 28 were detected. • Parasitic burden measured by eggs per gram (EPG) was heavy on the river bank. • Cross‐transmission of intestinal parasites among co‐habiting animals may occur. ABSTRACT Introduction Increasing urbanization has particularly affected rivers and their outer edges in cities ...
