A structural homology between eggs of Toxocara vitulorum, Fasciola gigantica and Moniezia expansa was proved by the use of SDS-PAGE. In immunoblot, 9, 11 and 7 polypeptides were recognized in F. gigantica, M. expansa and T. vitulorum eggs respectively by their respective rabbit anti-adult antisera. Moreover, components of 240 KD and 206 KD were recognized in the three eggs by different anti-adult antisera. The anatomic localization of the crossreactive epitopes in eggs was determined by indirect immunofluorescence microscopy. The cross-reactive epitopes were mainly associated with embryonted cells of F. gigantica, egg shell, larvae and vitelline membranes of T. vitulorum and egg shall and granular layer of M. expansa.

(Nematoda: Ascaridida) is a common parasite of cattle and buffaloes in tropical and subtropical regions and the causative agent of toxocarosis in calves. In Europe, sporadic infections have been reported in cattle, but also in bovines held at zoological gardens. Here, we report infections in a herd of American bison () kept at the Vienna Zoo, Austria, which occurred in 2023 and 2024.
