Vaccines against the zoonotic trematodesSchistosoma japonicum,Fasciola hepaticaandFasciola gigantica [PDF]
Parasitology, 2006 Schistosoma japonicum, Fasciola hepatica and F. gigantica are digenetic trematodes and, therefore, possess similar life cycles. While schistosomiasis japonica has for a long time been recognised as a major disease of both humans and animals, infection ...

Retrospective study on the prevalence of Hydatid cyst, Fasciola species and Dicrocelium dendriticum in the liver of sheep and goats slaughtered in Saveh slaughterhouse, Markazi province and the estimation of economic losses caused by their liver condemnation from 2014 to 2020 [PDF]
Bihdāsht-i Mavādd-i Ghaz̠āyī, 2023 Some zoonotic parasites such as Hydatid cyst, Fasciola species and Dicrocelium dendriticum cause death and economic losses in ruminants. The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence rate of liver parasites in sheep and goats slaughtered in ...

Prevalence of liver fluke (Fasciola hepatica) in wild Red Deer (Cervus elaphus): coproantigen ELISA is a practicable alternative to faecal egg counting for surveillance in remote populations [PDF]
, 2016 Red deer (Cervus elaphus) are hosts of liver fluke (Fasciola hepatica); yet, prevalence is rarely quantified in wild populations. Testing fresh samples from remote regions by faecal examination (FE) can be logistically challenging; hence, we appraise ...

Morphologic and morphometric variations of the adult and the eggs of frequent Fasciola species from domestic ruminants of North West of Iran [PDF]
The Iranian Journal of Veterinary Science and Technology, 2015 Worldwide including Iran, Fasciola species are the causes of human and animal fasciolosis which have comparatively identical morphologies. The present study is aimed to identify different Fasciola forms by using morphologic and morphometric variations ...

A mucin-like peptide from Fasciola hepatica instructs dendritic cells with parasite specific Th1-polarizing activity [PDF]
, 2017 Fasciolosis is a trematode zoonosis of interest in public health and cattle production. We report here the immunostimulatory effect of a 66 mer mucin-like peptide from Fasciola hepatica (Fhmuc), which synergizes with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to promote ...
