Trematodology - the study of a class of medically important
parasitic, flat-bodied worms - has made significant advances over
the past ten years. The tremendous amount of information
accumulated from research discoveries and technical developments
related to trematode biology makes this book a timely and necessary
part of the literature. Advances in Trematode Biology presents a
thorough treatment of modern trematodology, including principles
and practices. With coverage of background material as well as
modern methods, Advances in Trematode Biology updates researchers,
practitioners, and students with new information in immunology,
biochemistry, physiology, and molecular biology.
Advances in Trematode Biology includes practical information on
parasitological techniques, emphasizing species of medical and
veterinary importance - a key reference for parasitologists,
biologists, medical, and veterinary personnel. The excellent
presentation of material, including well-organized tables and
chapters, make Advances in Trematode Biology easy to use both as a
textbook and as a reference.
Parasitic flatworms include Cestodes (tapeworms) and trematodes
(flukes, schistosomes, etc), and are the cause of a number of major
diseases of medical and veterinary significance. Much recent
research has focused on molecular biology and genomics. this book
aims to review advances in our understanding of these and related
topics such as flatworm biochemistry, immunology and physiology.
Where appropriate, comparisons are made between different parasitic
flatworms and between parasitic and free-living species.
Contributors to the book include leading authorities from Europe,
North and South America, and Australia.
