The intermediate hosts for Taenia saginata and T. solium are cattle and pigs (and humans for the latter), respectively. In vitro-hatched (but not activated) oncospheres of both Asian Taenia (T. saginata asiatica, a new subspecies of T. saginata or T. asiatica, a new species) and T. solium injected subcutaneously into the backs of mice with severe combined immunodeficiency (scid) developed into fully matured cysticerci. Five-month-old metacestodes of Asian Taenia had no hooklets and were bigger in size than those previously reported and similar to those of T. saginata. Their morphology suggeste

Abstract:
SUMMARYA size selected genomic DNA library was constructed using DNA extracted from Taenia saginata. The DNA was digested using the restriction enzyme EcoR1 under star conditions and the 2–4 kbase fraction, selected following sucrose density-gradient separation, was cloned in the bacteriophage λgt 10. A panel of cestode DNAs including Taenia saginata, Taenia solium, Taenia taeniaeformis, Taenia crassiceps, Echinococcus granulosus and DNAs of bovine, porcine and human origin were used in conjunction with hybridization analysis to identify two recombinant bacteriophages.

Abstract:
Parasitic foodborne infections of humans may involve both protozoan and helminth species of internal parasites. The route of infection is normally consumption of the parasite’s natural hosts as a human food item. Taeniasis is a parasitic zoonotic disease caused by the adult stage of large tapeworms that live in the intestines of human hosts. Bovine cysticercosis is a food borne disease caused by Taenia saginata with humans as the final host and cattle as the intermediate host. Infection of human by Taenia saginata occurs through ingestion of raw or undercooked meat containing Cysticercus Bovis

Abstract:
Taeniasis remains a prevalent public health problem in Thailand. National helminthiasis surveys report only the incidence of Taenia spp. eggs. The ability to differentiate Taenia species using morphological and molecular techniques is vital for epidemiological surveys. This study detected taeniasis carriers and other helminthic infections by Kato’s thick smear technique and identified the Taenia species by multiplex PCR. The study subjects were the ethnic Karen people in Tha Song Yang District, Tak Province, Thailand, bordering Myanmar. In total, 983 faecal samples from villagers were examined

AbstractBovine cysticercosis causing damage to the beef industry is closely linked to human taeniasis due to Taenia saginata. In African countries, Taenia spp. from wildlife are also involved as possible sources of infections in livestock. To identify the aetiological agents of bovine cysticercosis in Ethiopia, cysticerci were collected from 41 cattle slaughtered in the eastern and central areas during 2010–2012. A single cysticercus per animal was subjected to the polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based DNA sequencing of mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 gene, and the resultant seque

Abstract:
A probabilistic risk assessment model was developed to estimate the risk to human health of Taenia saginata in the New Zealand cattle population. A standardized monitoring program was established to determine the number of suspect cysts detected during postmortem inspection and the scenario set was applied to risks in both the domestic and export markets. The mean number of human infections per year as a result of consumption in the export and the domestic market was estimated as 0.50 and 1.10 respectively. Estimations for expression of specific clinical symptoms were even less. In a scenario

ABSTRACT Species-specific identification of human tapeworm infections is important for public health purposes, because prompt identification of Taenia solium carriers may prevent further human cysticercosis infections (a major cause of acquired epilepsy). Two practical methods for the differentiation of cestode proglottids, (i) routine embedding, sectioning, and hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining and (ii) PCR with restriction enzyme analysis (PCR-REA), were tested on samples from 40 individuals infected with T. solium ( n = 34) or Taenia saginata ( n = 6).

Abstract:
A dynamic simulation model was used to assess the long-term effect of importing beef from an area with a high prevalence of Taenia saginata among cattle. The input of the model was from a Monte Carlo simulation model. The model predicted substantial increases in the prevalence of T. saginata in domestic cattle and in the incidence and prevalence of infections in humans that would last for more than one decade even if importation of infected beef was stopped after 2 years. The results were strongly influenced by various assumptions about proportion of human carriers infected abroad. Only in a s

Effective conservation and management of wildlife in the current changing world, call for incorporation of infectious zoonotic diseases surveillance systems, among other interventions. One of such diseases is echinococcosis, a zoonotic disease caused by Echinococcus species. This disease exists in two distinct life cycle patterns, the domestic and wildlife cycles. To investigate possible inter-links between these cycles in Kenya, 729 fecal samples from wild carnivores and 406 from domestic dogs (Canis lupus familiaris) collected from Maasai Mara and Samburu National Reserves were analyzed.

Abstract Hydatidosis and cysticercosis are the names given to human or animal infection with the larval cystic stages of taeniid tapeworms belonging to the genera Echinococcus and Taenia. The most important species for public health are, in order, E. granulosus (the cause of cystic hydatid disease), T. solium (the cause of neurocysticercosis), and E. multilocularis (the cause of alveolar hydatid disease). These cestodes are transmitted in life cycles involving two mammalian hosts (Table 1) (1, 2). T. solium (with T. saginata) is unique among parasitic zoonoses in that man comprises the sole de

Abstract The organisms which are characteristically referred to as parasites are a heterogeneous group which range in size from microsporidia to complex multicellular organisms, such as Taenia saginata. Parasitic infections are found in all geographic areas and several, such as toxoplasmosis and toxocariasis, are common in temperate countries. Protozoa and helminths have historically been diagnosed and treated by a different group of doctors and scientists than other human pathogens, i.e. parasitologists and tropical disease specialists, rather than clinical microbiologists or infectious disea

This chapter discusses cestodes that cause intestinal or tissue parasitoses. The intestinal tapeworms are meat- and fecal-borne parasites. Tissue infections with larval cestodes are acquired mainly through ingestion of tapeworm eggs found in human, dog, or fox feces. Taenia saginata, the beef tapeworm, may grow to 5 meters in length and live for up to 30 years in the small intestine of its human host. Humans may also be infected by ingestion of cysticercus, a bladder worm that is less than 1 cm in diameter and is present in raw or undercooked beef. The chapter details the testing, evaluation,

Abstract:
Taenia saginata, Taenia solium, and Taenia asiatica popularly known as beef, pork, and Asian tapeworm, are important food-borne parasites. Human taeniosis occurs as a zoonotic consequence of consumption of raw or under-cooked meat contaminated by viable larvae of T. saginata (Cysticercus bovis), T. solium (Cysticercus cellulosae) and T. asiatica (Cysticercus viscerotropica) and further development of their adult forms in human intestines. T. solium is highly endemic in pork-consuming poor communities of Asia, Africa, and Latin America, T. asiatica is restricted to Asia and is mainly confirmed
