Preliminary data on diffusion and molecular characterization of Cystic Echinococcosis in small ruminants in Peloponnesus, Greece / Varcasia, Antonio; Garippa, Giovanni; Pipia, Anna Paola; Canu, Salvatore; Kogkos, A.; Scala, Antonio; Porqueddu, M.. - In: PARASSITOLOGIA. - ISSN 0048-2951. - 48:1-2(2006), pp. 345-345.
Abstract:
Cystic echinococcosis (CE) caused by the metacestode of the dog wormEchinococcus granulosusis a
zoonotic disease of worldwide importance which is widespread in the Mediterranean Region (Garippa et al.
2004, Parassitologia, 46: 387-391). Here we examine CE cysts from sheep, and goats from
Peloponnesus in order to determine diffusion and prevalence of this meta cestode and to characterize the
genetic variants of the parasite in this district.
