Abstract The genus Amblyomma has the largest number of tick species in the Neotropical region. Amblyomma ovale displays high ecological plasticity and can be found in different habitats and a variety of vertebrate hosts....

Abstract Leishmaniasis is a parasitic disease caused by Leishmania spp., transmitted to hosts through the bite of female phlebotomine sandflies, with domestic dogs serving as reservoirs for the disease. Understanding the...

Abstract The objective of this study was to describe the positivity of intestinal parasitosis in cats from the city of Jataí, Goiás, as well as to determine the accuracy of different parasitological techniques applied....

Abstract Aplectana comprises species of gastrointestinal helminths commonly found parasitizing amphibians and reptiles worldwide. However, most species of the genus are described based only on morphological traits. Durin...

Abstract Species of the chewing louse genus Neopsittaconirmus Conci, 1942 are host-specific parasites on Old World and Australasian parrots (Psittaciformes), infesting both wild and captive birds. Despite veterinarian pr...

Abstract The family Anisakidae includes parasite genera that are important for public health due to their zoonotic potential. Among these, the genus Anisakis contains some of the most prevalent parasites found in fish th...

Abstract Carvacrol is isolated from essential oils and possesses activity against gastrointestinal nematodes of small ruminants. Benzoylation has been proposed to improve its pharmacological and pharmacokinetic propertie...

Abstract The objective of this study was to describe the seroprevalence and factors associated with Neospora caninum and Toxoplasma gondii infections in cattle in the state of Espírito Santo, Brazil. Serum samples were ...

Abstract This study evaluated dynamics of antibodies in dogs treated for canine visceral leishmaniasis (CVL). Twenty-one dogs naturally infected by Leishmania spp. were grouped based on the treatment protocol: G1 (n=4) r...

Abstract Gastrointestinal parasites found in four Neotropical psittacine birds of the species Ara macao, Amazona aestiva, Amazona vinacea and Pionus maximiliani have been reported. The carcasses of the animals were recei...

Abstract Rhipicephalus microplus is an ectoparasite responsible for causing economic losses in livestock farming totalling approximately $3.24 billion dollars per year. The main control method involves the use of chemica...

Abstract The diagnosis of canine visceral leishmaniasis (CVL) relies on parasitological, molecular methods and serological. However, there are difficulties in using these methods to monitor the disease, and there is a ne...

Abstract Growing antiparasitic resistance challenges parasite control in livestock, increasing interest in natural product-based alternatives for animal health and food quality. This study evaluated the in vitro activity...

Abstract Cystic echinococcosis (CE) diagnosis relies on clinical signs, serological tests, radiological findings and histopathology. Lack of pathognomonic features or clinician inexperience can make CE diagnosis challeng...

Abstract Cutaneous larva migrans (CLM) and visceral larva migrans (VLM) are neglected zoonoses caused by Ancylostoma spp. and Toxocara spp. Although investigations have been conducted in some areas of São Paulo State, B...

Abstract Opossums are synanthropic animals that participate in the zoonotic transmission cycles. Chagas disease, a neglected tropical disease caused by Trypanosoma cruzi, affects many domestic and wild animals and humans...

Abstract The study of the diversity of tick-borne agents in wild animals enables a better understanding of the distribution of pathogens in the country, the identification of potential reservoirs for these agents, the ma...

Abstract Stomoxys calcitrans is a hematophagous dipteran. The study aimed to evaluate the influence of spraying pressure on the efficacy of entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) on S. calcitrans larvae in sugarcane byproduct...

Abstract As chemotherapeutants used in control and treatment of monogeniosis can cause environmental damage and risks to human health, there is need of compounds alternatives effective and safe to this parasitosis. Essen...

Abstract Although toxoplasmosis is well documented in New World non-human primates, data on its clinical impact and genotypic diversity in neotropical rodents remain limited. This study investigated fatal toxoplasmosis i...

Abstract A complex interaction of gastrointestinal parasites with sheep hosts may involve bacteria communities, parasite genera, parasitic genes, and biological pathways. Haemonchus contortus presents a global challenge ...

Abstract The crab-eating raccoon (Procyon cancrivorus) is a wild carnivore with a broad geographic distribution, randing from Costa Rica to South America. This species remains understudied, particularly regarding Sarcocy...
