Schistosoma Species and Hybrid Genotyping With a Field Deployable Multi‐Marker Amplicon Panel

open access: yesCurrent Protocols, Volume 6, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Schistosomes are parasitic trematode worms of the genus Schistosoma, responsible for causing urogenital and intestinal schistosomiasis. Six primary species infect humans: S. mansoni, S. japonicum, S. mekongi, S. intercalatum, S. guineensis, and S. haematobium. In addition, several species including S. bovis, S. curassoni, and S.

Antibodies to glycans dominate the host response to schistosome larvae and eggs: Is their role protective or subversive? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Multiple exposures of chimpanzees to the radiation-attenuated schistosome vaccine provoked a strong parasite-specific cellular and humoral immune response. Specific IgM and IgG were directed mainly against glycans on antigens released by cercariae; these

Molecular detection of pathogens in an equine fever diagnostic panel: 2019–2023

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, Volume 58, Issue 2, Page 486-496, March 2026.
Abstract Background A common diagnostic approach for febrile horses is to test for a panel of potential pathogens. Panels are curated by expert opinion and vary between diagnostic laboratories. Objectives To report the results of a newly developed equine fever diagnostic panel (EFDP) between 2019 and 2023 and evaluate the frequency of positive results.

Radix natalensis (Gastropoda: Lymnaeidae), a potential intermediate host of Fasciola hepatica in Egypt

open access: yesParasite, 2010
Experimental infections of Egyptian Radix natalensis with French miracidia of Fasciola hepatica were carried out to determine if this snail might act as an intermediate host in the life cycle of this digenean in Egypt. Single exposures of R.

The Cercariae of the Transvaal [PDF]

open access: yesParasitology, 1918
During the months of September, October, November and December 1917 I collected 1250 different specimens of fresh-water snails from various parts of the Transvaal, more especially from the sources of the Vaal and Crocodile rivers. All the larger specimens I submitted to microscopic examination for possible infection with cercariae.
