In vitro and in vivo efficacy of thiacloprid against Echinococcus multilocularis
Background Alveolar echinococcosis (AE) is a chronic zoonosis caused by the larval form of Echinococcus multilocularis ( E. multilocularis ). Current chemotherapy against AE has relied on albendazole and mebendazole, which only exhibit parasitostatic and

Discrimination between E. granulosus sensu stricto, E. multilocularis and E. shiquicus Using a Multiplex PCR Assay. [PDF]
Infections of Echinococcus granulosus sensu stricto (s.s), E. multilocularis and E. shiquicus are commonly found co-endemic on the Qinghai-Tibet plateau, China, and an efficient tool is needed to facilitate the detection of infected hosts and for species

The immunodiagnosis of Echinococcus multilocularis infection [PDF]
Alveolar echinococcosis (AE) is a severe zoonotic disease caused by the metacestode stage of Echinococcus multilocularis. The infection can have fatal consequences in humans if treatment is not provided, so early diagnosis is fundamental for initiating treatment and reducing morbidity and mortality.
