Lack of efficacy of triclabendazole against Fasciola hepatica is present on sheep farms in three regions of England, and Wales. [PDF]

open access: yesVet Rec, 2019
The liver fluke Fasciola hepatica is a parasitic trematode that has a major impact on livestock production and human health. Control of F hepatica is difficult and relies on anthelmintics, particularly triclabendazole, due to its efficacy against both adult and juvenile stages of the parasite.

Topography of nervous system in two pouched paramphistomes [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings: Animal Sciences, 1985
Using the indigogenic technique for localizing the non-specific esterases, the complete nerve arrangement inFischoederius elongatus andGastrothylax crumenifer, the paramphistome parasites in the rumen of cattle, has been visualized. InF. elongatus, of the three pairs of anterior nerves given off from the cerebral ganglia, two are ventral and one is ...

Rumen fluke in Irish sheep: prevalence, risk factors and molecular identification of two paramphistome species. [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Vet Res, 2016
Rumen flukes are trematode parasites found globally; in tropical and sub-tropical climates, infection can result in paramphistomosis, which can have a deleterious impact on livestock. In Europe, rumen fluke is not regarded as a clinically significant parasite, recently however, the prevalence of rumen fluke has sharply increased and several outbreaks ...

Composite Fasciola hepatica faecal egg sedimentation test for cattle

open access: yesVeterinary Record, Volume 184, Issue 19, Page 589-589, May 2019., 2019
Options for diagnosing Fasciola hepatica infection in groups of cattle are limited. Increasing the opportunities for herd‐level diagnosis is important for disease monitoring, making informed treatment decisions and for flukicide efficacy testing. The sensitivity of a simple sedimentation method based on composite faecal samples for the detection of ...

Detection of Parasites and Parasitic Infections of Free‐Ranging Wildlife on a Game Ranch in Zambia: A Challenge for Disease Control

open access: yesJournal of Parasitology Research, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012
Ex-situ conservancies are expanding alternatives to livestock production in Zambia albeit the lack of information on circulating infectious parasites from wildlife. Therefore, 12 wildlife species were examined on a game ranch were all species were found to be infected by Rhipecephalus spp.

Genetic characterization of paramphistomes of buffalo by HAT-RAPD analysis

open access: yesTURKISH JOURNAL OF VETERINARY AND ANIMAL SCIENCES, 2014
Paramphistomosis is widely prevalent in domestic farm animals, incurring heavy economic losses in several countries across the world. As the identification of these parasites based on morphological features is very difficult, molecular characterization is necessary to discriminate among different species.
