abstract:
Although Cystic Echinococcosis (CE) is still a
health, economic and social problem of great importance
in Sardinia today, not all aspects of it have
been studied, and in particular its epidemiology in
cattle. This note updates the epidemiological data
on Bovine CE in Sardinia, and with the help of
advances made in biomolecular taxonomy identifies
the strains ofEchinococcus granulosusin cattle.
