    Martin K Nielsen
    Department of Large Animal Sciences, Faculty of Life Sciences, University of Copenhagen, Denmark
    Int J Parasitol 38:443-53. 2008
    ..An association between Ct values and S. vulgaris larval counts was statistically significant. The present assay can reliably and semi-quantitatively detect minute quantities of S. vulgaris eggs in faecal samples...
  2. ncbi Restrictions of anthelmintic usage: perspectives and potential consequences
    Martin K Nielsen
    Department of Large Animal Sciences, Faculty of Life Sciences, University of Copenhagen, Denmark
    Parasit Vectors 2:S7. 2009
    ..Preliminary experience with prescription-only restrictions in Denmark is presented and current research needs to further evaluate this approach are discussed...
  3. ncbi Effects of fecal collection and storage factors on strongylid egg counts in horses
    M K Nielsen
    Department of Large Animal Sciences, Faculty of Life Sciences, University of Copenhagen, Taastrup Denmark
    Vet Parasitol 167:55-61. 2010
    ..Our results demonstrate that refrigeration is the best method for storage of fecal samples intended for egg count analysis, but that accurate results can be derived from fecal samples collected from the ground within 12h of passage...

    Vet Parasitol 174:77-84. 2010
    ..This supports usage of cutoffs for treatment in the 0-500 EPG range. Altogether, the present study yields unique and useful information of widely used methods for parasite surveillance and diagnosis in equine establishments...

    Mette L Larsen
    Department of Large Animal Sciences, Faculty of Life Sciences, University of Copenhagen, DK 2630 Taastrup, Denmark
    Vet J 188:44-7. 2011
    ..Mean faecal egg count reductions at 4 and 6 weeks post treatment were 99.5% and 96.9%, respectively. No signs of developing ivermectin resistance were found in either cyathostomins or P. equorum in the studied horses...
