| Resumo: |
Five calves were each experimentally infected with 30,000 cercariae of Schistosoma bovis and three calves were kept as controls. S. bovis eggs first appeared in feces of the infected animals by week 5 post infection and all animals were shedding by week 6 post infection. Between week 7 and 9 post infection, where fecal egg counts were highest, the infected animals developed mucoid and then hemorrhagic diarrhoea and they became dull and depressed. Packed cell volumes and hemoglobin concentrations of the infected animals showed progressive reductions compared to the uninfected control calves. The animals were necropsied and perfused at week 12 post infection and tissue egg densities and worm burden were determined.
