| Abstract: | Background In autumn 2006, Finnish meat inspection data revealed lesions in tendons, muscles and ligaments of bovine hind legs leading
to partial condemnation of carcasses. In gross pathological examination at Finnish Food Safety Authority Evira, Oulu (now
Fish and Wildlife Health) Research Unit, Onchocerca sp. (Filarioidea; Onchocercidae) nematodes were detected in lesions. Due to this, a pilot study was made in order to find
out what filarioid nematodes do occur in cattle, horses and sheep in Finland. |
