Chlorination of Schistosoma mansoni cercariae [PDF]

open access: yesPLOS 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 fine‐scale phylogenetic assessment of digenean trematodes in central Alberta reveals we have yet to uncover their total diversity

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2019
Despite over 100 years of digenean trematode parasite species descriptions, from a wide diversity of vertebrate and invertebrate host species, our ability to recognize the diversity of trematode species within a single lake remains an incredible ...

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.
