This is of special importance today, since the geographical limits and the populations at risk, traditionally limited to developing or low-income countries, are currently expanding and changing in relation to factors such as growing international markets, improved transportation systems, and demographic changes. This has led to a growing international interest in trematode infections, although factors such as the difficulties entailed in the diagnosis, the complexity of human and agricultural practices, the lack of assessments of economic costs, or the limited number of effective drugs are preventing the development of control measures of these diseases in humans and livestock. In-depth studies are needed to clarify the current epidemiology of these helminth infections and to identify new and specific targets for both effective diagnosis and treatments. The main goal of the third edition of this book is to present the major trematodes and their corresponding diseases in the framework of modern parasitology, considering matters such as the application of novel techniques and analysis of data in the context of host-parasite interactions and also with the resident microbiota, showing the application of modern techniques and concepts to the studies on digenetic trematodes. This is an ideal book for parasitologists, microbiologists, zoologists, immunologists, public health professionals, clinicians and graduate and post-graduate students. . 410 0$aAdvances in Experimental Medicine and Biology,$x2214-8019 ;$v1454 606 $aParasitology 606 $aImmunology 606 $aMicrobiology 606 $aFood$xMicrobiology 606 $aVeterinary microbiology 606 $aPharmacology 606 $aParasitology 606 $aImmunology 606 $aMicrobiology 606 $aFood Microbiology 606 $aVeterinary Microbiology 606 $aPharmacology 615 0$aParasitology. 615 0$aImmunology. 615 0$aMicrobiology. 615 0$aFood$xMicrobiology. 615 0$aVeterinary microbiology. 615 0$aPharmacology. 615 14$aParasitology. 615 24$aImmunology. 615 24$aMicrobiology. 615 24$aFood Microbiology. 615 24$aVeterinary Microbiology. 615 24$aPharmacology. 676 $a592.48 700 $aToledo$b Rafael$01749466 701 $aFried$b Bernard$0531585 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 912 $a9910874671703321 996 $aDigenetic Trematodes$94183694 997 $aUNINA
