The literature on human mussel-borne protozoan and helminthic infections is widely dispersed in epidemiological and parasitological journals. This review is focused on humans as hosts for protozoan, trematode and nematode parasites associated with consumption of mussels. These infections are caused mainly by protozoans transferred as cysts and oocysts or trematodes transferred as cercariae or metacercariae...
The objective of the study was to determine the degree of municipal wastewater contamination with intestinal parasite eggs of the genera Ascaris, Toxocara, and Trichuris at individual stages of treatment, and indication of potentially weak points in the hygienisation of sewage sludge. The study was conducted in 17 municipal mechanical-biological wastewater treatment plants which, to a slight degree,...
The aim of the study to evaluate the occurrence of intestinal parasites and Salmonella in fox and mink faeces and to assess potential biological risk related to their use as a natural fertilizer in agriculture. The study included 12 randomly selected fox-breeding farms with a total population of 2800 animals and 9 mink farms with a total of 24 650 animals. The material examined comprised 120 samples...
The aim of the study was to optimise selected PCR methods for identification of T. solium, and to compare their effectiveness and usefulness. The investigation concerned three PCR methods described earlier: PCR I (specific to oncosphere- specific protein Tso31 gene), PCR II (specific to large subunit rRNA gene), and PCR III (cytochrome c oxidases ubunit 1 gene). Each of them needed optimisation in...
This article presents the essential stages leading to development of a modified method for Hypoderma bovis protein transfer, and estimation of the usefulness of semi-quantitative densitometric analysis of western-blottig results. The principal of the method was to incubate the gel obtained with the native electrophoresis method in buffer containing SDS prior to transfer of the separated proteins of...
The aim of presented investigation was to estimate the usefulness of a new method for determining the efficiency of acaricides against red poultry mites. The special Plexiglas plates were used in order to imitate natural conditions as close as possible. The investigation was conducted on the mites collected from 32 battery cage farms of laying hens. Nine commercial acaricides were used. The efficacy...
Investigation was carried out on red poultry mites Dermanyssus gallinae collected from 32 batten- cage farms of laying hens localised in 14 voivodships. The following insecticides were used: Alfasekt (α-cypermetrin), Blaxime (phoxim), ByeMite (phoxim), Ficam (bendiokarb), Galtox B (fenitrotion, dichlorphos, α-cypermetrin), Knox-out (diazinon - microcapsule form), Master (chlorpyrifos - microcapsule...
