Composite Fasciola hepatica faecal egg sedimentation test for cattle

Veterinary Record, Volume 184, Issue 19, Page 589-589, May 2019., 2019
Options for diagnosing Fasciola hepatica infection in groups of cattle are limited. Increasing the opportunities for herd‐level diagnosis is important for disease monitoring, making informed treatment decisions and for flukicide efficacy testing. The sensitivity of a simple sedimentation method based on composite faecal samples for the detection of ...

Partial characterisation of carbohydrate-rich Echinococcus granulosus coproantigens

International Journal for Parasitology, 2003
Coproantigen ELISA based tests for diagnosis of canine echinococcosis provide high specificity and sensitivity. However, the antigenic molecules present in faeces from infected dogs have not yet been characterised. While initial attempts to determine the molecular weights of Echinococcus granulosus coproantigens by SDS-PAGE and Western blotting with ...

An Echinococcus multilocularis coproantigen is a surface glycoprotein with unique O-gycosylation [PDF]

Glycobiology, 2009
A major surface constituent of Echinococcus multilocularis adult worms, referred to as EmA9 antigen, was immunoaffinity purified and identified as a high molecular weight glycoconjugate. Labelling studies using the monoclonal antibody MAbEmA9 indicated that this antigen undergoes a regulated expression during the development from the larval to the ...

Echinococcus multilocularis coproantigen detection by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay in fox, dog, and cat populations [PDF]

, 1999
A sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for the detection of Echinococcus multilocularis coproantigens (EM-ELISA) was developed with polyclonal rabbit (solid phase) and chicken egg (catching) antibodies that were directed against E ...

Endoparasites of Rattus norvegicus With Reference to Their Zoonotic Importance in an Urban District, East Kuwait

Veterinary Medicine International, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Rattus norvegicus (the brown rat) is adaptable to living in urban settlements across the globe, including Kuwait where this rodent species is widespread in human habitats. It has been known that brown rats are reservoirs of many pathogens, including parasites that can pose a threat to human and animal health.

Taeniasis/cysticercosis among Family Members in Villages of Jayawijaya District, Papua

Makara Journal of Health Research, 2010
The area of Jayawijaya, including the Subdistricts of Wamena and Assologaima, is a hyperendemic area of taeniasis/cysticercosis. The disease is considered as a household disease because often if one family member is infected with the disease we can also ...

A Cross‐Sectional Study of Entamoeba histolytica/dispar/moshkovskii Complex in Salvador, Bahia, Brazil

BioMed Research International, Volume 2019, Issue 1, 2019., 2019
Epidemiological studies on species‐specific Entamoeba infections are scarce due to the morphological similarity of pathogenic Entamoeba histolytica and nonpathogenic E. dispar and E. moshkovskii. The diagnosis of E. histolytica is frequently based on coproantigen (E. histolytica‐Gal/GalNAc lectin specific) detection by immunoassays. However, specific E.

Applicability of 99mTc‐Labeled Human Serum Albumin Scintigraphy in Dogs With Protein‐Losing Enteropathy

Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, Volume 31, Issue 2, Page 365-370, March/April 2017., 2017
Background Diagnosis of protein loss into the gastrointestinal tract using noninvasive techniques is challenging. In people, scintigraphy not only is a sensitive tool to confirm protein‐losing enteropathy (PLE), but it also allows for localization of protein loss. Hypothesis/Objectives To investigate the feasibility of 99mTc‐labeled human serum albumin

The utility of coproantigen testing in screening populations

Veterinary Parasitology
Detection of intestinal parasites is essential for veterinarians to assess risk of parasite infections. Traditionally, detection of intestinal parasites has relied primarily on detection of ova with fecal flotation methods. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical utility of a commercially available coproantigen immunoassay detecting ...
