Helminths and the Respiratory System

Archivos de Bronconeumología ((English Edition)), 2006
1998. We will begin with a brief overview of the main genera and species involved, followed by a description of the point in the life cycle of each parasite when contact with the respiratory apparatus takes place. The second part of the article is a review of the principal epidemiological characteristics, with particular emphasis on the geographical ...

Helminths: Comparison of their rhodoquinone

Experimental Parasitology, 1973
Abstract A rhodoquinone (RQ) has been isolated from Stephanurus dentatus and has been shown to be identical with RQ-9 from Ascaris lumbricoides var. suis (A. suum) . The ratio of RQ/mg N is fairly constant among larval, juvenile, and adult forms of S. dentatus with an average value of 1.63 μg/mg N. A Chromatographie survey found RQ in all eleven
