Parasitic Infections of Freshwater Fish in Kenya: Prevalence Patterns, Ecological Drivers, and Implications for Aquaculture Sustainability

Journal of Parasitology Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Fish parasitic infections present a growing threat to freshwater aquaculture in Kenya, affecting fish health, reducing productivity, and limiting the economic potential of small‐scale and commercial farms. This review provides the first consolidated national checklist of freshwater fish parasites in Kenya, synthesizing evidence from lakes, rivers, and ...

Local adaptation of the trematode Fasciola hepatica to the snail Galba truncatula

Parasite, 2012
Experimental infections of six riverbank populations of Galba truncatula with Fasciola hepatica were carried out to determine if the poor susceptibility of these populations to this digenean might be due to the scarcity or the absence of natural ...

Chlorination of Schistosoma mansoni cercariae

PLOS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2020
Schistosomiasis is a water-based disease acquired through contact with cercaria-infested water. Communities living in endemic regions often rely on parasite-contaminated freshwater bodies for their daily water contact activities, resulting in recurring schistosomiasis infection.

A Contribution Toward Understanding Trematode Diversity in Freshwater Snails of the Southwestern Kathmandu Valley, Nepal

Journal of Tropical Medicine, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Background Freshwater snails serve as intermediate hosts for trematode parasites and play a key role in transmitting various parasitic diseases. Snail‐borne trematodiases pose important public and veterinary health risks in South Asia, where freshwater snails sustain transmission in agricultural and periurban waters.
