Oxfendazole flukicidal activity in pigs [PDF]
Although oxfendazole (OFZ) is a well know broad-spectrum benzimidazole anthelmintic, the assessment of its potential trematodicidal activity remains unexplored.

Differentiation of Schistosoma haematobium from related schistosomes by PCR amplifying an inter-repeat sequence. [PDF]
Schistosoma haematobium infects nearly 150 million people, primarily in Africa, and is transmitted by select species of local bulinid snails. These snails can host other related trematode species as well, so that effective detection and monitoring of ...

Cercariae (Digenea: Strigeidae, Diplostomidae) in Biomphalaria straminea (Planorbidae) from a rice field in Northeastern Argentina [PDF]
The rice fields can provide habitats for many species of aquatic invertebrates, as insects, molluscs, crustaceans; and vertebrates, as fish, amphibians, reptiles and birds, which may act as hosts in the life cycles of digenean parasites. In this context,

Intestinal Trematode Infections
Intestinal trematodes are among the most common types of parasitic worms. About 76 species belonging to 14 families have been recorded infecting humans. Infection commonly occurs when humans eat raw or undercooked foods that contain the infective metacercariae.

Trematode infections are known to induce malformations and increase mortality in amphibians. However, not all the larval trematodes induce effects on the host. Nine types of cercariae (A-I) belonging to five morphotypes (oculopleurolophocercous, distome,

Thermodynamics of trematode infectivity
SUMMARY Temperature is an important factor influencing the biology of organisms and is intrinsically linked to climate change. The establishment of trematodes in target hosts is potentially susceptible to temperature changes effecting parasite infectivity or host susceptibility, and therefore in order to develop predictive frameworks of host ...

Environmental Epidemiology of Intestinal Schistosomiasis in Uganda: Population Dynamics of Biomphalaria (Gastropoda: Planorbidae) in Lake Albert and Lake Victoria with Observations on Natural Infections with Digenetic Trematodes [PDF]
This study documented the population dynamics of Biomphalaria and associated natural infections with digenetic trematodes, along the shores of Lake Albert and Lake Victoria, recording local physicochemical factors. Over a two-and-a-half-year study period
