Detection of <i>Dirofilaria repens</i> and <i>Mansonella llewellyni</i> in the United States by <i>Wolbachia</i> Surveillance. [PDF]

Transbound Emerg Dis
In mammals, detection of Wolbachia bacteria can be used to diagnose filarial infection, while antibiotic treatment to eliminate Wolbachia can assist in eliminating filarial infections. Because Wolbachia are necessary for survival of several filarioids and closely related to Anaplasma and Ehrlichia, we analyzed Wolbachia DNA amplification by Anaplasma ...

Circulation of Dirofilaria repens and Dirofilaria immitis in Moldova [PDF]

Parasites & Vectors, 2016
Over the last two decades, a significant spread of dirofilariasis has been observed in eastern and central Europe. However, data on the circulation of Dirofilaria spp. in Moldova were absent although direct neighbor states reported high incidence rates of human dirofilariasis.Daily mean temperature data were used to calculate Dirofilaria spp ...
