Trichinella spiralis, day-old chicks (exper.), most worms expelled, some matured in intestine and produced larvae which penetrated muscles, little or no development there, followed by death and degeneration, viability of larvae from chickens confirmed by mouse infection

evaluation of a Toxocara canis blastogenesis assay with peripheral mononuclear cells in Macaca fascicularis with induced T. canis infections and in humans with serologically confirmed visceral larva migrans (VLM), questionable sensitivity, difficulty, expense, and time associated with this technique do not make it suited for confirming a clinical diagnosis of VLM

Ostertagia ostertagi, beef calves (exper.), levamisole gel formulation evaluated for efficacy, safety, and residues

Fasciola hepatica, natural infections of cattle surveyed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), results compared with those obtained by fecal examination, advantages and limitations of ELISA for diagnosis: Washington

Baylisascaris procyonis, experimental infection of domestic pigs with eggs from raccoons, B. procyonis will undergo limited migration in swine and can produce typical white spots in the liver, larvae were killed by cellular reactions in the intestinal wall and liver, no somatic migration or CNS disease occurred after infection

helminths of naturally infected dogs and cats, effect of febantel/praziquantel paste

Boophilus microplus, B. annulatus, Hereford heifers (exper.), permethrin or fenvalerate applied as sprays, both pyrethroids could provide adequate reduction in control programs however both acaricides failed to provide the necessary reduction to achieve complete elimination

Eimeria spp., calves (exper.) treated with lasalocid (Bovatec) or decoquinate (Deccox) and premunized did not develop diarrhea, calves premunized but not treated were no more resistant to challenge than nonpremunized calves, premunization alone cannot be expected to prevent coccidiosis when animals are exposed to large numbers of oocysts

prevalence of Anoplocephala perfoliata and lesions of Draschia megastoma in Thoroughbreds according to host age and month of necropsy

tick infestations did not cause suppressed immune responses to Anaplasma marginale vaccination in calves, anaplasmosis did not prevent calves from developing resistance to tick reinfestation which was accompanied by immediate hypersensitivity reactions against homologous tick extracts, Dermacentor albipictus did not seem to share common antigenic determinants with Boophilus microplus
