- L1 Coracidium- L2 Procercoid- L3 Pleurocercoid.
If you detect Taenia type eggs in a faecal sample of a dog, it could be infected with:
- Taenia multiceps, Dipylidium caninum, Echinococcus granulosus.
How do you detect cystocercus bovis?
Necropsy + meat inspection.
Which sp. occur in dogs?
- F.hepatica, T.ovis, D.latum.
The eggs of this parasite cannot be detected:
- E.alveolaris, C.pisiformis + C. cellulose since they are metacestodes.
Which form is infective in sheep?
Cistecercoid in Orbatidae.
Which statement is true?
Proglottis do ø pass permanently with faeces.
What does gravid segment mean?
- When a proglottid migrates to the end of tapeworm, and produces a huge amt of eggs.
- It then detaches + is excreeted in faeces.
Size of Taenia- type eggs?
30 - 40 µm.
