Microfilarial periodicity of Wuchereria bancrofti in Vanuatu
Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2003A study on the relationship between the microfilarial periodicity of Wuchereria bancrofti and vector biting activity was carried out in Penama province, Vanuatu from February to April 1999, to enable the design of a more efficient strategy to control filariasis transmission. The microfilarial periodicities of 22 W. bancrofti antigen-positive volunteers

Epidemiology of Wuchereria bancrofti in Leogane, Haiti
Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1988A survey for Wuchereria bancrofti in Leogane, Haiti, revealed that 140 of 421 individuals (33%) had a patent infection, of which 40% lived in the suburban outskirts of the city. The median microfilaria density was 19.1 per 20 mm3 of blood for suburban dwellers compared with only 8.8 for those living in the city. The vector, Culex quinquefasciatus (Say),

Abstract Thick blood films are dried for 9–12 hours and are then stained for 1 hour in Giemsa diluted 1 in 50 with phosphate buffer solution at p H 7.2. This technique reveals constant colour contrasts between the microfilariae of W. malayi and W. bancrofti which help considerably towards species identification. The main points of difference are

THE TREATMENT OF FILARIASIS (WUCHERERIA BANCROFTI)
Journal of the American Medical Association, 1944Filaria infections and elephantiasis have not been of especial concern to American physicians despite the widespread distribution of this condition throughout the world. Only at Charleston, S. C., the endemic focus of the United States, has the disease been an immediate problem.
