Clonorchis sinensis under a light microscope: Notice the uterus; this species is monoecious. An adult C. sinensis is a flattened (dorsoventrally) and leaf-shaped fluke. The body is slightly elongated and slender, measuring 15–20 mm in length and 3–4 mm in width. [10]

This toxin results in the fish developing bleeding lesions, and their skin flakes off in the water. The dinoflagellates then eat the blood and flakes of tissue while the affected fish die. [ 33 ] Fish kills by this dinoflagellate are common, and they may also have been responsible for kills in the past which were thought to have had other ...

Fasciola hepatica Egg of Dicrocoelium sp.. Liver fluke is a collective name of a polyphyletic group of parasitic trematodes under the phylum Platyhelminthes. [1] They are principally parasites of the liver of various mammals, including humans.
The technique used for testing depends on the type of sample. [42] When the helminth ova are in sludge, processes such as alkaline-post stabilization, acid treatment, and anaerobic digestion are used to reduce the amount of helminth ova in areas where there is a large amount. These methods make it possible for helminth ova to be within the ...
Specific helminths can be identified through microscopic examination of their eggs (ova) found in faecal samples. The number of eggs is measured in units of eggs per gram . [ 35 ] However, it does not quantify mixed infections , and in practice, is inaccurate for quantifying the eggs of schistosomes and soil-transmitted helminths. [ 36 ]
