Ivermectin is considered to be a wonder drug due to its broad-spectrum antiparasitic activity against both ectoparasites and endoparasites (under class of endectocide) and has multiple applications in both veterinary and human medicine.... more
Sequence analysis of the cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 gene of Sarcoptes scabiei isolated from goats and rabbits in East Java, Indonesia, Veterinary World, 12(7): 959-964. Abstract Aim: This study aimed to sequence the Cytochrome c... more
Aim: The current study was designed to isolate and characterize Toxocara vitulorum glycoprotein antigens and then to evaluate its potency in accurate diagnosis of toxocariasis. Materials and Methods: T. vitulorum glycoprotein fractions... more
Free pre-tetrathyridia of Mesocestoides sp. are described, for the first time, from samples obtained from the coelomic cavity of a ground skink, Scincella lateralis, from Oklahoma. Closer examination of these early-stage tapeworms... more
Ultrastructure of eggs of the cestode Gyro-cotyle urna Grube and Wagener 1852 with fully formed shells and early embryonic stages is described for the first time. Multiple techniques used included cryo-methods of high-pressure freezing... more
Goat farming is the great economic importance as a major source of income for small and the landless farmers in rural areas. A study on prevalence of helminths of goat in relation to age, sex, seasonal, tehsil and month-wise was studied... more
Aim: The objective of this research was to determine the species and strains of Leucocytozoon caulleryi and study the phylogenetics of L. caulleryi of broiler chickens in endemic areas in Indonesia. Materials and Methods: Blood samples... more
A three months Toxologic pathology study of piperazine hydrate in male wild pigeons by oral intubation were done. The study was done at three dosage levels as low (0.25 ml), intermediate (0.50 ml) and high (1 ml) with untreated control as... more
Heamonchus contortus (order strongylida) is a common parasitic nematode infecting small ruminants and causing significant economic losses worldwide. H. contortus are consider the most economically important parasite which infect cattle,... more
A study was conducted in sheep on Canadian farms to describe the relationship between packed cell volume (PCV) or fecal egg counts (FEC) and subjective clinical parameters that may indicate the severity of parasitic gastroenteritis.... more
Trypanosoma evansi, a haemoflagellate, causes "surra" an important chronic wasting disease of a wide range of wild and domestic herbivorous and carnivorous animals including cattle, buffaloes, camels, horses, etc. The untreated... more

Adults of Gurltia paralysans were obtained from veins of the spinal cord subarachnoid space from three domestic cats presenting with chronic paraparesis/paraplegia from rural areas of southern Chile. Four adult nematodes were collected (2... more
The most variable region of the cytochrome oxidase I (COI) gene of Hypoderma bovis1 and Hypoderma lineatum2 (Diptera, Oestridae) was amplified by PCR and the amplicons were sequenced and analysed. PCR products were digested with three... more
Fecal analyses are becoming increasingly important for equine establishments as a means of parasite surveillance and detection of anthelmintic resistance. Although several studies have evaluated various egg counting techniques, little is... more
In order to better understand the enzootiology of trypanosomiasis caused by Trypanosoma evansi in the Brazilian Pantanal we examined domestic and wild mammals by microhematocrit centrifuge technique (MHCT), immunofluorescence antibody... more
Fasciolosis, caused by the trematode Fasciola hepatica, is a zoonosis of economic importance in livestock that is emerging as a chronic disease in humans. The intermediate hosts are lymnaeid snails, in which diagnosis of infection is... more
In this study, infrared thermography (IRT) was assessed as a means of detecting the changes in body temperature in rabbit coccidiosis, as well as determining IRT used in imaging and measuring the regional changes in skin temperature that... more
