This
lecture note covers introduction to parasitology, Overview of
parasitology, protozoan parasites, Protozoan Parasites, Helminth
parasites and arthropod parasites.
This
book emphasizes past and current research efforts about principles of
natural control of major parasites affecting humans, animals, and crops. It
discusses and updates information about three major topics of natural
remedies.
Web Atlas of Medical Parasitology aims to provide educational
materials for medical students primarily, but professional workers in
medical or paramedical fields may also refer to this site covering the
significant parasites in the world.
Parasites
are still an important threat to our global health and economy, and
represent an important branch of infectious diseases. This note is designed
to provide students of microbiology and biology with a basic understanding
of classical and modern parasitology.
Parasitism is a kind of symbiosis,
a close and persistent long-term biological interaction between the parasite
and its host. Topics covered includes: Etymology, Evolutionary strategies,
Parasitic castrators, Parasitoids, Transmission strategies, Hyperparasitism,
Social parasitism, Brood parasitism, Kleptoparasitism, Sexual parasitism,
Adelphoparasitism, Taxonomic range, Host defences, Evolutionary ecology.
This lecture note
is devoted to providing general aspects of parasitology in addition to
covering human parasites in two major groups -the protozoa and helminths
including their distribution, habitat, morphology, life cycle, pathogenicity,
prevention and control, laboratory diagnosis and their relevance to
Ethiopia. It has also appendices, which discuss the collection of laboratory
specimens, preservatives of stool sample, frequently used parasitological
