In recent years, the threats and damages caused by active worms have become more and more serious. In order to reduce the loss caused by fastspreading active worms, an effective detection mechanism to quickly detect worms is desired. In this paper, we first explore various scan strategies used by worms on finding vulnerable hosts. We show that targeted worms spread much faster than random scan ...

Although the majority of infections due to worms are generally limited to tropical regions, they can occur to travelers who have visited those areas and some of them can deve...

The infective larvae of Nematospiroides dubius were exposed to various levels (0-30 krad) of gamma irradiation by means of a Cobalt 60 source. Groups of mice were infected with these larvae and autopsied 5 weeks later for worm counts. It was found that male worms were more susceptible to irradiation than female worms. In both instances, however, the survival curve on a semi logarithmic plot was...

IgG1 antibody responses to Heligmosomoides polygyrus were measured in eight mouse strains supporting acute (< 8 weeks, SJL, SWR), intermediate (10-20 weeks, NIH, BALB/c) or chronic (> 25 weeks, C57BL/0, CBA, C3H, AKR) primary infections. Mice supporting acute or intermediate infections produced more intense antibody responses and total serum IgG1 concentrations were higher than in mice tolerati...

More than a half of the world's population are infected with one or more species of intestinal worms of which the nematodes Ascaris lumbricoides, Trichuris trichiura and the hookworms are the most common and important in terms of child health. This paper: (1) introduces the main species of intestinal worms with particular attention to intestinal nematodes; (2) examines how such worms may affect...
