The suitability of dogs and cats as hosts of Echinococcus multilocularis was studied in animals which had each been infected orally with approximately 15,000 protoscolices. Twenty-one days after injection, the mean number of immature worms recovered from 12 dogs was 874.7 and from 12 cats was 101.7. The mean length of the worms was 1.21 mm in dogs and 1.00 mm in cats. The number and length of worms recovered from dogs were significantly greater (alpha = 0.01).
在每组经口感染约15000个原头节的动物中,研究了狗和猫作为多房棘球绦虫宿主的适宜性。注射后21天,从12只狗体内回收的未成熟虫体平均数量为874.7条,从12只猫体内回收的为101.7条。狗体内虫体的平均长度为1.21毫米,猫体内为1.00毫米。从狗体内回收的虫体数量和长度显著更多(α = 0.01)。
