Echinococcoses require the involvement of specialists from nearly all disciplines; standardization terminology used in field is thus crucial. To harmonize echinococcosis on sound scientific and linguistic grounds, World Association Echinococcosis launched a Formal Consensus process. Under coordination Steering Writing Group (SWG), Consultation Rating (CRG) had main missions (1) providing input list terms drafted by SWG, taking into account available literature participants' experience; (2)...
Abstract Background Cystic echinococcosis (CE), caused by the larval stage of Echinococcus granulosus sensu lato , is a zoonotic parasitic disease economic and public health importance worldwide, especially in Mediterranean area. Canids are main definitive hosts adult cestode contaminating environment with parasite eggs released feces. In rural peri-urban areas, risk transmission to livestock as well humans high because free-roaming behavior owned/not owned dogs. Collecting data on animal...
Giardia intestinalis is one of the most common causes parasite-induced diarrhea, abdominal pain, flatulence, and malabsorption. Yet, data on epidemiology G. infections in North Africa are limited. The purpose this study was to carry out a retrospective survey level intestinal parasitism with particular emphasis children adults Algiers, Algeria. A total 2,054 individuals from outpatient clinics or hospitalized at Beni-Messous University Hospital Algiers undergoing stool microscopy for ova...
Toxoplasmosis is one of the most important foodborne diseases in humans, potentially acquired by ingesting unpasteurized goat milk. This study examined role milk as a source infection Toxoplasma gondii for humans Algeria. Sera, blood, and samples collected from 106 female goats were tested presence antibodies against T. its DNA, using indirect ELISA PCR, respectively. Multiplex PCR was performed 15 microsatellite markers to determine clonal type DNA detected. Seropositive results found 51...
T. gondii is the causal agent of toxoplasmosis, a worldwide zoonotic disease relevant in human and veterinary medicine. In Algeria, few reports focused on presence circulation this parasite local goat population. The aim survey was to evaluate toxoplasmosis seroprevalence associated risk factors. Sera from 460 goats reared 72 farms northeastern Algeria were collected tested for IgG antibodies by an indirect ELISA. To identify factors, linear regression analysis variables performed. Anti-T....
Cystic echinococcosis (CE), caused by the tapeworm Echinococcus granulosus, is a zoonotic parasitic disease that still represents serious threat to human and animal health worldwide. The Mediterranean basin recognized as one of major hotspots CE due several factors, including presence diverse intermediate host species well socio-economic cultural conditions local communities. This study aims take closer look at epidemiological data on in area assess knowledge attitudes practices shepherds...
Aim: The present study was designed to investigate the prevalence and identification of gastrointestinal parasites in feces samples dromedary camels (Camelus dromedarius) Algeria based on microscopic examination. Materials Methods: A total 717 fresh fecal obtained from 28 farms at Steppe Northern Sahara regions were processed for examination after concentration by formalin-ether sedimentation flotation techniques. In addition, Cryptosporidium spp. done modified Ziehl-Neelsen staining Lugol...
(1) Intestinal microbial parasites are major contributors to the global burden of gastrointestinal disease. Such infections mainly caused by Cryptosporidium, Giardia duodenalis, and Entamoeba histolytica. These transmitted either directly or indirectly through oral–fecal routes. Previous reports suggested that camels could play a role in zoonotic transmission various clinically veterinary important intestinal parasites, however, limited data available on camels, particularly molecular level....

Background: In Algeria, data on the epidemiology of theileriosis in small ruminants are limited. Objectives: The current study investigates seroprevalence Theileria spp. goats from M’Sila region, Central Algeria. Methods: Blood samples 128 19 farms were collected locality Maâdid. indirect fluorescence antibody test (IFAT) was performed to goats’ sera for antibodies against ovis and lestoquardi. Results: Out tested samples, 21 (16.40%) positive T. antibodies. All seronegative varied 10% 30%...
Abstract Ticks are important vectors of human and animal pathogens, but many questions remain unanswered regarding their taxonomy. Molecular sequencing methods have allowed research to start understanding the evolutionary history even closely related tick species. Ixodes inopinatus is considered a sister species highly similar ricinus , an vector tick-borne pathogens in Europe, identification between these remains ambiguous with disagreement on geographic extent I. . In 2018-2019, 1583 ticks...
Abstract Argas persicus is soft tick commonly associated with poultry farms. It has a wide geographic distribution and colonizes different climate regions. Morphological identification of A. been reported worldwide, while genetic data regarding its molecular characterization limited. The present study provides on morphological identification, infestation prevalence collected domestic birds in traditional farms from east Algeria. Additionally, samples originating Gansu province China were...
Abstract Cystic echinococcosis (CE), caused by the larval stage of cestode Echinococcus granulosus, is one most widespread zoonoses in Mediterranean countries. Baiting not-owned dogs with praziquantel (PZQ), due to their key role maintaining transmission CE, currently appears be effective way limit as well an important aspect introduce for control this parasitic disease. Therefore, study aims test 3 types PZQ-based baits evaluating different parameters (integrity over time, attractiveness...
