Part 4: Direct transmission
... This term includes the transmission probability ij from vector species i to host species j, and the probability pij of biting a host of species j. The probability of biting a host of species j is calculated by multiplication of the preference ij for host j by vector species i with the number of ...

Lesson 8.Pathogenesis of Bacterial Infection
... Invasion is penetration of host cells and tissues (beyond the skin and mucous surfaces), and is mediated by a complex array of molecules, often described as ‘invasins’. These can be in the form of bacterial surface or secreted proteins which target host cell molecules (receptors). Once attached to a ...

Schistosoma mansoni
Schistosoma mansoni is a significant parasite of humans, a trematode that is one of the major agents of the disease schistosomiasis which is one type of helminthiasis, a neglected tropical disease. The schistosomiasis caused by Schistosoma mansoni is intestinal schistosomiasis.Schistosomes are atypical trematodes in that the adult stages have two sexes (dioecious) and are located in blood vessels of the definitive host. Most other trematodes are hermaphroditic and are found in the intestinal tract or in organs, such as the liver. The lifecycle of schistosomes includes two hosts: a definitive host (i.e. human) where the parasite undergoes sexual reproduction, and a single intermediate snail host where there are a number of asexual reproductive stages.S. mansoni is named after Sir Patrick Manson, who first identified it in Formosa (now Taiwan).
