Introduction to Parisitology Laboratory Procedures

Parasite A smaller organism that lives on or in and at the expense of a large organism called the host. Host’s expense may be trivial, substantial, or even unbearable. Host’s expense is dependant upon:  Number of parasites  Kind and degree of the injury that they inflict  Vigor or nourishment of the host

Parasitism Infestation with parasites Muliple parasitism: A condition in which parasites of different species parasitize a single host Superparasitism: Excessive parasitization of the same species.

Types of Relationships in Nature Mutualism Commensalism Predator-Prey Parasite

Life Cycles and Transmission of Parasites Life cycle describes how an organism develops from the immature stage to the adult. Some animals produce live young and others produce eggs Some one-celled parasites may even reproduce by dividing into two identical parts

Direct Life Cycle The immature form of the parasite can infect the same host it came from  Ex. Roundworms

Indirect Life Cycle The immature form must pass through a different type of host before it can re-enter and infect he host it came from.  Intermediate host is the host in which the immature form of the parasite lives  Definitive host is the host in which the adult form lives. Ex. Heartworms

Transport Hosts Some life cycles incorporate a transport host Is an intermediate host where no development occurs. Is a way for the parasite to get from one host to another.  Rodents can transport roundworms to dogs and cats

Migration Many parasites have life cycles that include a phase of migrating through the body.  Ex. Hookworms

Aberrant Parasites Most parasites are host-specific If enter wrong animal, may not be able to survive or migrate abnormally. When this occurs, the parasite is called aberrant. May cause an over-reaction in the body of the wrong host and serious disease can result

Zoonoses Infections that can be passed from animals to humans Sometimes humans will have same symptoms of dog and cat  Ex. Roundworms, Hookworms, Toxoplasma

Prepatent Period The time interval between when the parasite enters the host and the subsequent form of the parasite can be recovered from the host.  Ex: Heartoworms is 6 months  Ex. Whipworms is three months

Incubation Period Represents the time from when the parasite enters the host and the development of signs or symptoms of disease. Usually longer than prepatent period

Living arrangements of parasites Ectoparasites: parasites that live outside the host  Fleas, ticks Endoparasites: parasites that live within the host  Roundworms, heartworms, tapeworms

Obligatory Parasites Live on host at all times Can not live or reproduce in free environment Most parasites are obligatory in nature If live outside host, do in a dormant way until get into a new host

Periodic Parasites Parasites that live part of their lives on a host and part of it off the host.  Ticks

Facultative Parasites Parasites that can eat, sleep and lay eggs off the host May take opportunity to infect host if one presents itself.  Ex. Pelodera strongyloides

Major Classes of Parasites Helminths  Nematodes  Tapeworms  Flukes Arthropods  Insects  Arachnids Protozoa

Helminths Generic word for “worm” Is actually the grouping together of nematodes, tapeworms, and flukes

Nematodes In general are round in cross section, longer than they are wide and are unsegmented. Can be in a variety of lengths. Significant cause of disease in dogs and cats Have varied life cycles Example is Roundworms

Tapeworms Flat worms that are segmented Head usually has suckers or muscular grooves that enable it to attach itself to the animal’s intestine Each segment has own reproductive organs. Have no digestive system Life cycle includes an intermediate host

Flukes Flat, leaf shaped, unsegmented worms that look similar to leeches. Have suckers, hooks, or clam-like appendages which they attach themselves to host’s organs. Fluke eggs have a trap door called an operculum Dog and cat flukes have indirect life cycles Generally do not cause serious issues in dogs and cats unless in high numbers

Arthropods Means joint foot and refers to fact that all members have jointed legs Include insects and arachnids

Insects Make up to 70% of all known species of animals of all kinds Have antennae, compound eyes and body Many have wings Fleas and lice

Arachnids Include ticks and mites Are carnivores by feeding on tissue and blood.

Protozoa Over 450,000 species of Protozoa Composed of nucleus and cytoplasm May move with assistance of flagella. Giardia is an example of a protozoa
