Neglected food-borne trematodiases: echinostomiasis and gastrodiscoidiasis. [PDF]
Parasitology, 2022 AbstractIn the present paper, we review two of the most neglected intestinal food-borne trematodiases: echinostomiasis, caused by members of the family Echinostomatidae, and gastrodiscoidiasis produced by the amphistome Gastrodiscoides hominis. Both parasitic infections are important intestinal food-borne diseases.

Environmental DNA, Volume 4, Issue 3, Page 627-641, May 2022., 2022 In this study, we develop an optimized eDNA‐based metabarcoding tool to detect and characterize the trematode communities from environmental and, more specifically water‐sediment interface samples. The efficiency of this new tool is first assessed by an exhaustive in‐silico and in‐vitro validation step and compare to a classical trematode monitoring ...
