What's the difference between helminth and helminthic?

Helminth


Definition:

  • (n.) An intestinal worm, or wormlike intestinal parasite; one of the Helminthes.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) This preliminary study estimates the occurrence of concurrent helminth infection in Africa and Brazil to determine whether such an approach is justified epidemiologically.
  • (2) All four significantly affected helminth motor activity and were active at 200 and 150 micrograms ml-1, and three of the four were active at 100 and 50 micrograms ml-1.
  • (3) It is suggested that this early immune maturity may play a role in the hardiness of WAD goats and in their relative resistance to helminth and protozoan infection as compared with local sheep.
  • (4) The presence of helminthic invasion of the liver--opisthordiasis resulted in hepatitis, pancreatitis that would not respond to therapy in patients with ALMS.
  • (5) Halogenated anthelmintics were not metabolized to GSH conjugates in the helminths studied and did not inhibit GSH-S-aryltransferase activity towards chlorodinitrobenzene.
  • (6) The possibility that the activities observed may contribute to the elimination of peroxide in the helminth system is considered.
  • (7) Our results indicated that analyses of helminth communities of deer from this geographical area do not provide a useful quantification technique for determining deer condition, degree of hybridization, or levels of intraspecific competition.
  • (8) Much more fundamental information on helminth-bovine interactions, on helminth antigens, and on cattle antibody systems must be developed before progress on control of cattle helminths by vaccination can be meaningful.
  • (9) The predominant helminth was Ancylostoma duodenale, with the peak prevalence (65.2%) in patients older than 18 years, followed by Ascaris lumbricoides and Strongyloides stercoralis.
  • (10) Recently we described a mathematical model of the role of acquired immunity in host-helminth interactions.
  • (11) In addition, a number of antiparasitic agents have been shown to exert their actions through a free radical metabolism: nitro compounds used against trypanosomatids, anaerobic protozoa and helminths; crystal violet used in blood banks to prevent blood transmission of Chagas' disease; the antimalarial primaquine, chloroquinine, and quinhasou; and quinones active in vitro and in vivo against different parasites.
  • (12) Results of the infection of golden hamsters with different dozes of cercariae have shown that with the increase of dozes of infectious material the infection rate of helminths rises during the experimental intestinal schistosomiasis only to a definite level, which is attained by the injection of cercariae into the portal vein in dozes lower than those used for subcutaneous infection.
  • (13) Total parasitic helminth burdens, which were never large, were determined in order to define their seasonal incidence.
  • (14) Out of a total of 140 male and 114 female dogs sampled for gastro-intestinal helminth ova, 122 males (87.14%) and 101 females (88.59%) respectively were infested.
  • (15) Cuban mosquitoes are an important factor in the transmission of both viral and protozoal and helminthic diseases.
  • (16) A total of 91 free-ranging black bears (Ursus americanus) from the Peace River region of northwestern Alberta was examined for helminths.
  • (17) Levamisole and Banminth affected the motility of the helminth larvae with subsequent death after 24h.
  • (18) A significant association was also found between distance from a river and prevalence of S. haematobium (r = 0.94) and S. mansoni (r = 0.95) (P less than 0.01), but not with the other helminth infections.
  • (19) In addition to the known human pathogenic helminths H. nana and H. diminuta, localized foci of hookworms (Ancylostoma spp.)
  • (20) The observation, in parasitic protozoa and helminths, that selfing or non-obligatory mating is a common feature suggests that these processes may be strategies to overcome the cost of meiosis.

Helminthic


Definition:

  • (a.) Of or relating to worms, or Helminthes; expelling worms.
