细粒棘球绦虫是澳大利亚唯一出现的棘球绦虫属成员。细粒棘球绦虫的主要生物量存在于野生动物中。野生动物的传播循环主要是通过野狗(野狗和野狗/家养狗的杂交)和大型有袋类动物(沙袋鼠和袋鼠)之间的捕食者/猎物相互作用来延续的。其他野生动物宿主包括狐狸、袋熊和野猪。细粒棘球绦虫的野生动物蓄水池通过感染细粒棘球绦虫的野狗在牧场上排泄,将感染传播给牲畜和一些农民和猎人,将感染的棘球绦虫或野猪的内脏喂给家犬,从而帮助维持家庭循环。在公园和森林的公共野餐和露营区,特别是在澳大利亚东南部,通过定期分发含有吡喹酮的诱饵,可以大幅降低对人类的潜在传播风险。野狗和狐狸侵入城市中心,为野生动物向人类传播提供了一条新的潜在途径。(C)2005爱思唯尔爱尔兰有限公司。保留所有权利。
Echinococcus granulosus is the only member of the Genus Echinococcus to occur in Australia. The major biomass of E. granulosus occurs in wildlife. The wildlife transmission cycle is predominantly perpetuated via a predator/prey interaction between wild dogs (dingoes and dingo/ domestic dog hybrids) and macropodid marsupials (wallabies and kangaroos). Other wildlife hosts include foxes, wombats and feral pigs. This wildlife reservoir for E. granulosus "spills over" to help maintain a domestic cycle through E. granulosus-infected wild dogs defecating on pasture, transmitting infection to livestock and some fanners and hunters feeding hydatid-infected offal of rnacropodids or feral pigs to domestic dogs. The potential transmission risk to humans using public picnic and camping areas in parks and forests, especially in the southeastern Australia, could be substantially reduced through regular distribution of baits containing praziquantel. Encroachment of wild dogs and foxes into urban centers presents a new potential path of transmission from wildlife to humans. (C) 2005 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.
