TL;DR: In this paper, the occurrence of F. hepatica was confirmed in 64.82% of the municipalities and the percentage of occurence for host species was 27.86 in cows, 24.72 in water buffaloes, 16.92 in sheeps and 15.66 in goats.
Abstract: During 12 years feces samples from cows, water buffaloes, sheeps and goats were examined by sequencial tamis filtration to show the occurence of Fasciola hepatica eggs. The material came from 129 municipalities of Santa Catarina State, and 5 g of feces per animal were examined. The occurrence of F. hepatica was confirmed in 64.82% of the municipalities. Considering the host, F. hepatica was confirmed in goats from Florianopolis, Sao Jose, Sao Joao Batista and Guaramirim municipalities; in sheeps from Brusque, Pomerode, Palhoca and Sao Jose; in water buffaloes from 9 and in cows from 86 municipalities. For this study, 13,762 feces samples were examined and in 3,814 the presence of eggs of F. hepatica was demonstrated. The percentage of occurence for host species was 27.86 in cows, 24.72 in water buffaloes, 16.92 in sheeps and 15.66 in goats. By the results it was demonstrated that Itajai Valley at Southest Hidrographic Basin, in Santa Catarina State is an endemic area of F. hepatica, even though Uruguai Hidrographic Basin was not referred as a geographical record for this parasite.

TL;DR: In this paper, a one-part suction unit was designed to connect the mouthpiece and the bearer via a peripheral projecting edge section, where the hard material of the bearer was an ETPE or a basic polymer of it, and the soft material was a polyolefin such as polypropylene.
Abstract: The hard material of the bearer (1) is an ETPE or a basic polymer of it, and the soft material of the mouthpiece (8) is an ETPE moistened with the bearer material. The basic polymer is a polyolefin such a polypropylene. The bearer (1) has a safety strip (4) which extends into the mouthpiece (8). Pref. the safety strip (4) extends in the longitudinal direction of the mouthpiece (8) and at both ends is connected with the bearer (1). The bearer has an accommodation (9) for the end of the mouthpiece (8) connected with it. The mouthpiece (8) is connected to the bearer (1) via a peripheral projecting edge section (9). The EPTE of the mouthpiece (8) covers the safety strip (4) on the side facing the user. USE/ADVANTAGE - As a one-part suction unit. The unit is cheap to produce and the connection of the mouthpiece and bearer fulfils very high strength requirements.

TL;DR: Em um estudo feito no Frigorifico FAVA S/A Araguari, Minas Gerais, verificou-se that de 14.162 equideos abatidos, procedentes de 9 estados brasileiros, 31,49% achavam-se positivos para larvas de moscas do genero Gasterophilus.
Abstract: Fourteen thousand, one Hundred sixthy two slaughtered horses from nine Brazilian states at the FAVA S/A slaughter-house, Araguari, MG; between May, 14th/1987 to May, 10th/1988 and 31.49% had been Gasterophilus positive. During this period were observed positive animals from 7 different states: Mato Grosso do Sul (85.71%); Sao Paulo (75.95%); Parana (65.61%); Goias (44.02%); Mato Grosso (42.03%); Minas Gerais (14.03%); Para (8.33%) and negative animals from 2 other states: Espirito Santo and Rio de Janeiro. Animals from 226 cities had been studied and 77.43% were gasterophilosis positive. The identified species was Gasterophilus nasalis.
