Exposure to Common Fish Parasite Can Cause Sensitivity to Dust Mites

Inves­ti­ga­tions into the cross-reactivity of humans exposed to A. sim­plex, A. Siro, L. ditruc­tor,
The Fish par­a­site Anisakis sim­plex. This par­a­site is con­sid­ered a major aller­gen and, like fish aller­gies, can cause severe aller­gic reac­tions includ­ing ana­phy­lac­tic shock. If you have a severe aller­gic reac­tion after eat­ing fish but tests come up neg­a­tive, con­sider ask­ing your […]

Water borne par­a­sites are directly attibuted to sev­eral known can­cers although they are not the sole cause for the iin­clud­ing blad­der, col­orec­tal can­cers and lymphomas.

Tests con­ducted in rela­tion­ship with the Uni­ver­stiy of Leeds and Med­ical Uni­ver­sity of John Hop­kins showed  that cur­rent meth­ods for killing water born  par­a­sites are becom­ing less […]

J. Virginianus Reduces Schistosome (Parasites) Survival and Infectious Ability by 90% and 99.2%.

The wood oil of Junipe­rus Vir­gini­anus is heat sta­ble and reduces schis­to­some (com­monly called blood-flukes and bil­harzia, They cause the most sig­nif­i­cant infec­tion of humans by flat­worms) sur­vival and infec­tious abil­ity by 90% and 99.2%. The effec­tive dose (13 ?g/cm2)is depen­dent on sur­face area rather than vol­ume of water treated. We con­clude that appli­ca­tion of the biodegrad­able for­mu­la­tion to the sur­face of schistosome-infested waters may be an effec­tive, eco­nom­i­cal, and safe means of reduc­ing human infec­tions.

Macrofilaricidal(worm Killing ability) Activity of Cedrus Deodara, Perfumers Cedarwood

The wood extract of Cedrus deo­dara (Per­fumers cedar­wood, chem­i­cally related to J. vir­gini­anus) exhib­ited 47.97 and 86.56% inhi­bi­tion in for­mazan for­ma­tion at 1 mg/ml at an expo­sure period of 1 and 4 h, respec­tively. At higher con­cen­tra­tions and larger expo­sure peri­ods, Cedrus deo­dara showed a sig­nif­i­cant macro­fi­la­r­i­ci­dal activ­ity when tested on adult Setaria dig­i­tata, the cat­tle filar­ial worm.
