摘要
The duration of excretion of Toxocara vitulorum larvae in the milk of buffalo cows determines the optimum time for treating calves. Studies on 10 cows showed that a few larvae occur in the colostrum of some cows before the calf has suckled, but most are present from the day after calving and for a further five days. From day 9 onwards, very few larvae were found in the milk. The total number of larvae found was comparable with the number of adult parasites collected from the calves of cows with similar histories. The larvae were 1254 ± 60 μm long and 36 ± 6·7 μm in diameter at the ventriculus, figures which are substantially different from some published results. © 1990.
