The lack of cheap, easy-to-use, rapid diagnostic tests has led to the development of several rapid diagnostic tests for cysticercosis. The new prototype two-strip, Taenia solium point of care test (TS POC) detects antibodies against taeniosis (TS POC

Bovine cysticercosis and taeniosis: The effect of an alternative post-mortem detection method on prevalence and economic impact

Autor: Famke Jansen, Pierre Dorny, Dirk Berkvens, Sarah Gabriël

Publikováno v: Preventive Veterinary Medicine. 161:1-8

In Europe, bovine cysticercosis (BCC) is detected by routine meat inspection (MI) at the slaughterhouse. The prevalence of BCC in Belgium based on MI is estimated at 0.23%. MI has a known low sensitivity for animals with localised infections and alte
