Prevention and Control of Fish-borne Zoonotic Trematodes in Fish Nurseries, Vietnam
Worldwide, >18 million persons were infected with fish-borne zoonotic trematodes in 2002. To evaluate the effectiveness of interventions for reducing prevalence and intensity of fish-borne zoonotic trematode infections in juvenile fish, we compared ...

Ligula intestinalis (Cestoda: Pseudophyllidea): an ideal fish-metazoan parasite model? [PDF]
Since its use as a model to study metazoan parasite culture and in vitro development, the plerocercoid of the tapeworm, Ligula intestinalis, has served as a useful scientific tool to study a range of biological factors, particularly within its fish ...
