摘要
The definitive hosts of E. multilocularis are, besides the red foxes and the dogs, also cats, which can become a direct source of infection to humans. We examined samples of outdoor cat faeces from West Bohemia, where considerable incidence of fox and dog echinococcosis has been reported. Samples of cat faeces were examined by ELISA for specific coproantigens of the Echinococcus spp. (CHEKIT - Echinotest, Bommeli, Switzerland). Three out of the total of 80 cat faeces samples were positive (3.75 %). Prevalence E. multilocularis in red foxes, dogs and cats ranked the region West Bohemia among hyperendemic localities.
