Brugian filariasis: epidemiological and experimental studies.
D.A. Denham,P.B. Mcgreevy +1 more
TL;DR: The correlation between peak peripheral microfilaraemia and peak biting time suggests that filarial nematodes have adapted theirperiodicity patterns to vector periodicity patterns for facilitating their transmission by mosquitoes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Filarial antibodies and eosinophilia in human subjects in an endemic area
Ming M. Wong,Mary F. Guest +1 more
TL;DR: Certain patterns of antibody production were discernible in that humoral antimicrofilarial antibodies were found in all persons with elephantiasis and in smaller proportions of subjects in other groups, but not in subjects with microfilaraemia or chronic asthma.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ecological relationships between parasites and primates
TL;DR: A large number of species of Infected Primates and Their Helminth Parasites are known to have occurred in Japan, but the distribution of these species and their genera is still poorly understood.
Journal ArticleDOI
A review of the complexity of biology of lymphatic filarial parasites
K. P. Paily,S.L. Hoti,P. K. Das +2 more
TL;DR: Survival analysis of Culex quinquefasciatus infected with W. bancrofti showed that the parasite load in the mosquito is a risk factor of vector survival, and the possibility of in vitro and in vivo culture of filarial parasites is reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Population studies of Malaysian primates
TL;DR: Systematic field studies on the abundance of primates were made in five different types of forest in West Malaysia in 1970, finding thatPrimates were unexpectedly rare in mangrove forests and rubber plantations.

Journal ArticleDOI
On the adult morphology of Wuchereria sp. (malayi?) from a monkey (Macaca irus) and from cats in Malaya, and on Wuchereria pahangi n.sp. from a dog and a cat.
J. J. C. Buckley,J. F. B. Edeson +1 more
TL;DR: Morphological studies revealed a new species of Wuchereria, herein named W. pahangi, in the dog and in one cat, and a species in the Kra monkey which is close to and probably identical with adults of W. malayi as described by Bonne el at .
Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental transmission of Brugia Malayi and B. Pahangi to man
TL;DR: The clinical episodes of B. pahangi are considered to be reactions to the immature developing worms, whereas the eosinophilia is more probably a response to some product of the adult worms.
Journal ArticleDOI
The transmission of Wuchereria malayi from man to the domestic cat.
J.F.B Edeson,R. H. Wharton +1 more
TL;DR: The successful transmission of Wuchereria malayi from man to the domestic cat by direct inoculation of infective larvae is described and the microfilariae were apparently indistinguishable from those of the human donors, and they developed normally in the vector mosquitoes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Studies on Filarîasis in Malaya: the Efficiency of Mansonia longipalpis as an experimental Vector of Wuchereria malayi.
TL;DR: In this paper, the efficiency of Mansonia Longipalpis as an experimental vector of Wuchereria Malayi was investigated in the context of Filariasis in Malaya.
Journal ArticleDOI
A preliminary account of the transmission, maintenance and laboratory vectors of Brugia pahangi.
TL;DR: Feeding experiments with a wide range of mosquitoes showed that Armigeres obturbans is a very efficient host and Mansonia annulatus is also a good host but M. uniformis is less efficient and M. longipalpis is a comparatively poor laboratory host.
