Analysis of the effect of soil saprophytic fungi on the eggs of Baylisascaris procyonis

Abstract: Baylisascaris procyonis is a soil-transmitted helminth mainly found in raccoons (Procyon lotor) which can also affect other domestic and sylvatic animals, as well as humans, when the eggs released in the feces of parasitized raccoons are accidentally ingested. Three assays have been conducted to assess the effect of three saprophytic fungi, Mucor circinelloides, Paecilomyces lilacinus, and Verticillium sp., on the eggs of B. procyonis. Firstly, their ovicidal effect was in vitro ascertained by placing 1 mL wit… Show more

“…As drawn in Figures 3 and 4, the addition of spores of M. circinelloides to the feces of dogs infected by T. c a n i s decreased their viability by half after a period of 30 days [29]. When the spores were sprayed onto feces of raccoons parasitized by B. procyonis, egg viability reduced by two-thirds also, in agreement with previous experiments [30].…”

“…Most known species with ovicidal activity are Verticillium spp., Pochonia chlamydosporia , Paecilomyces lilacinus , Trichoderma spp., or Mucor circinelloides [ 18 , 19 , 20 ]. By developing the phases of adhesion, colonization, penetration, and deliberation, these fungi develop an ovicidal activity [ 21 , 22 ]. Recently, the role of Trichoderma spp.…”
