The Life Cycle of Fasciola hepatica

TL;DR: The story of the discovery of the life cycle of F. hepatica has been recounted before, and only a short account will be given here of the principal discoveries.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gut wash, body soak, blender and heat-fixation: approaches to the effective collection, fixation and preservation of trematodes of fishes.

TL;DR: Emphasis is placed on obtaining high-quality specimens that have reliable data and that are amenable to study by both morphological and molecular approaches, and the importance of reliable labelling and the deposition of specimens in museums is emphasised.

The Biology of the Intestinal Trematode Echinostoma caproni

TL;DR: The biology of the intestinal trematode, Echinostoma cuproni, is introduced and it is concluded that this organism is an exceptionally fine model for various studies in parasitology.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fasciola hepatica: glycocalyx replacement in the juvenile as a possible mechanism for protection against host immunity.

TL;DR: The response of newly excysted juvenile Fasciola hepatica to immune sheep serum under in vitro conditions was examined using indirect fluorescent antibody labeling and electron microscopy to verify than an immune complex formed at and sloughed from the tegumental surface of those which were incubated in immune serum.

Paragonimus and paragonimiasis.

TL;DR: This chapter discusses the advancement of research into Paragonimus and paragonimiasis in the taxonomic, immunodiagnostic, and chemotherapeutic fields.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fasciola hepatica: development of tegument during migration in mouse.

TL;DR: The discussion correlates the development of the tegument with the changes in environment and a mechanism of spine growth is proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI

The classification of digenetic trematoda: a review and a new system.

TL;DR: A system based on life history data and particularly on the development of the excretory bladder and associated structures has been developed and presented in the form of a key from which adult characters are omitted, in the hope that its publication may lead eventually to theDevelopment of a system which will portray with some degree of accuracy the genetic relationships within the Digenea.
