Three steps for assessing adult lungworm burden in small ruminants

2024-10-04

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Lungworm infections, also known as verminous pneumonia, are caused by various nematodes affecting wild and domestic ruminants worldwide. Lung nematodes also decrease reproductive fitness, body weight, and general animal performance. Since lung disease severity is linked to lungworm burden, adult worm collection after lung dissection is the reference method for assessing the intensity of...
