Principles, objectives and methods for the control of the gastro-intestinal parasites of pigs in France.

Parasitic levels are considered in relation to the size of farms and according to the application of anthelminitic programmes and the age groups of the animals. The most common and important parasites in France against which systematic control measures should be taken are Oesophagostomum, Ascaris and Hyostrongylus in pregnant sows, and Oesophagostomum and Ascaris in piglets at weaning and fattening pigs. Strongyloides and Trichuris are found occasionally but could be sometimes important (Mestastrongylus is anexceptional finding). As regards the use of anthelmintics, emphasis is placed on treatment of sows at parturition, or of piglets on transfer to the growing units, with two treatments being given at an interval of 14-21 days. Continuous administration in the food is a complementary solution. Specific treatments for the control of Trichuris and Strongyloides are also examined. In the control of parasites the strict observation of the rules of hygiene is also very effective.

The intestinal parasites of a community of feral chimpanzees, Pan troglodytes schweinfurthii.

Fecal specimens from 32 champanzees living in Gombe National Park, Tanzania, were examined. Six species of helminths and 2 species of ciliates were found: Probstmayris gombensis File (in press), Strongyloides fuelleborni von Linstow 1905, Necator sp., Oesophagostomum sp., Abbreviata caucasica von Linstow 1902, Trichuris sp., Troglodytella abrassarti Brumpt and Joyeux 1921, and an unidentified ciliate. None of the parasitic infections were heavy. This is the first such survey of the chimpanzee in its natural habitat.

[Influence of specific treatment of intestinal parasites and schistosomiasis on prevalence in students in Barra de Santo Antônio, AL].

From a total of 1,020 students examined, 983 (92%) showed positive results for at least one species of parasite. Six months after treatment, a sample of 383 students (37.5%) was reevaluated and 347 (90.6%) presented positive results. There was no significant change in prevalence before and after treatment, although the number of individuals that had multiple parasitism was significantly lower in the second sample.
