Morphological and MALDI-TOF MS identification of freshwater snails, including intermediate hosts of schistosomes in Gabon

2025-07-18

Abstract excerpt

A thorough knowledge of intermediate snail hosts and their geographical distribution is essential to understanding the transmission of schistosomiasis and to inform interventions in Gabon. Accurate identification of both snails species and Schistosoma species is therefore essential. The aim of this study was to identify the intermediate hosts of Schistosoma spp. (snails) using MALDI-TOF MS. <h4>Methods</h4> Sn...
