  • Title: Evaluation of coinfection with pinworms (Aspiculuris tetraptera, Dentostomella translucida, and Syphacia obvelata) in gerbils and mice.
    Author: Pinto RM, Gomes DC, Noronha D.
    Journal: Contemp Top Lab Anim Sci; 2003 Jul; 42(4):46-8. PubMed ID: 12906402.
    Abstract:
    Mongolian gerbils (Meriones unguiculatus) naturally infected with the nematode Dentostomella translucida and mice (Mus musculus) that were either pinworm-free or harboring either or both Aspiculuris tetraptera and Syphacia abvelata were crossinfected experimentally with these nematode species. Gerbils were susceptible to infections by S. obvelata and A. tetraptera from mice, whereas mice were resistant to infection by D. translucida from gerbils. The data presented are the first regarding coinfections with these three pinworms in gerbils.
