Prevalence of in definitive and intermediate hosts collected from agricultural areas in Ampayon, Butuan City, Southern Philippines.

Angiostrongyliasis is a parasitic disease and a leading cause of human eosinophilic meningoencephalitis caused by rat lungworm . This parasite infects a wide range of animal hosts, including snails and rats, which plays a significant role in zoonotic transmission. The study was conducted to determine the prevalence of   infection in freshwater snails and definitive rat hosts in the agricultural area in Ampayon, Butuan City, Philippines.

The prevailing infection of and other zoonotic parasites in bubaline reservoir hosts in the ricefield of lake ecosystem: the case of Lake Mainit, Philippines.

Bovines are important reservoir hosts of schistosomiasis, placing humans and animals in rice fields areas at risk of infection. This study reported the prevailing infection of zoonotic parasites from bovine feces in the rice fields adjacent to Lake Mainit, Philippines. Formalin Ethyl Acetate Sedimentation was performed on 124 bovine fecal samples from rice fields and documented eggs and cysts from seven parasites: sp.

Prevalence of in bovines and from ricefields surrounding Lake Mainit, Philippines.

Schistosomiasis is a parasitic disease caused by blood flukes of the genus and involves bovines and snails as a reservoir and intermediate hosts, respectively. This disease is endemic in Lake Mainit, Philippines, as early as 1947. The study was conducted to determine the prevalence of infection in ricefields adjacent to Lake Mainit by collecting snails and bovine fecal samples which are then subjected to laboratory examination and analysis.

infection of non-native rats in Mount Makiling Forest Reserve, the Philippines.

A number of studies had been conducted on rat species diversity in the Philippines, however, there is a dearth of information on the extent of Angiostrongylus spp. infection in various ecological niches. Collection of non-native rat samples occurred in various sampling sites categorized as residential, agricultural and agro-forest in Philippine Mount Makiling Forest Reserve (MMFR) and its adjacent areas .
