Detection of Echinococcus multilocularis in foxes in The Netherlands
Veterinary Parasitology, 1999Echinococcus multilocularis was demonstrated in 5 out of 272 foxes in The Netherlands close to the border with Germany and Belgium. Besides microscopic examination of mucosal scrapings, two different PCR assays were used based on the detection of E. multilocularis DNA in colon content.

Parasite immunology (Print), 2020
Alveolar echinococcosis is a severe chronic helminthic infection that mimics a tumour‐like disease. This study aimed at investigating in vitro interactions between Echinococcus multilocularis vesicular fluid (VF) and different immune checkpoints (PD‐1/PD‐

Echinococcus multilocularis is a parasite species of zoonotic importance which can be fatal to humans and causes Alveolar Echinococcosis (AE). This report describes the development of a cyst from the liver of a wild boar and molecular confirmation of its

Echinococcus multilocularis: The parasite–host interplay
Experimental Parasitology, 2008Alveolar echinococcosis (AE) is a severe chronic helminthic disease caused by the intrahepatic tumor-like growth of the metacestode of Echinococcus multilocularis. Metacestodes are fluid-filled, asexually proliferating vesicles, which are entirely covered by the laminated layer, an acellular carbohydrate-rich surface structure that protects the ...

Echinococcus multilocularis infection in horses in Poland
Veterinary Parasitology: Regional Studies and Reports, 2020A cross-sectional survey was performed to obtain first information on the prevalence of Echinococcus multilocularis infection in slaughter horses from central, eastern and southern Poland, a country with a highly endemic occurrence of this tapeworm in red foxes.

Wilderness in the city: the urbanization of Echinococcus multilocularis
Trends in Parasitology, 2004A distinct increase in fox populations, particularly in urban areas, has been observed in Europe. This is of particular concern in endemic regions of the small fox tapeworm Echinococcus multilocularis, the aetiological agent of human alveolar echinococcosis.

Echinococcus multilocularis: Characterization of a DNA probe
Acta Tropica, 1990A 0.6 kb DNA fragment has been isolated from a genomic sublibrary of the cestode Echinococcus multilocularis. This DNA-fragment showed a strong hybridization signal to 32PdCTP labeled total DNA prepared from E. multilocularis metacestode material. The fragment was subcloned into the Escherichia coli vector Bluescript BS+ resulting in the recombinant ...

A model for the control of Echinococcus multilocularis in France
Veterinary Parasitology, 1995In some areas of France the prevalence of Echinococcus multilocularis in foxes is as high as 50%, whereas less than one in a thousand voles (principally Microtus arvalis) are infected. In these regions the control of rabies in foxes is achieved by using helicopters to spread bait containing oral vaccine in capsules.

Echinococcus multilocularis: a political zoonosis [PDF]
Companion Animal, 2013 Echinococcus multilocularis is a tapeworm of canids and is ranked among the world’s most lethal zoonoses. Red foxes (Vulpes vulpes) provide a natural reservoir of infection but the urbanisation of the red fox and it’s increase in numbers across Europe have brought E.

Lipids of Echinococcus multilocularis metacestodes
Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part B: Comparative Biochemistry, 1988Abstract 1. 1. Lipid distribution of Echinococcus multilocularis was as follows; neutral lipid 48.5%; glycolipid 8.4%; and phospholipid 43.0%. 2. 2. Neutral and phospholipid compositions were determined by high-performance thin-layer chromatography (HPTLC) and densitometry. 3. 3.
