KRATOCHVÍL, David
This thesis was focused on the parasite of the class of tapeworms of the genus Echinococcus. Taxonomy, history, life cycle, Echinococcus species, host specificity, patogenity and clinical symptoms as well as diagnostics and occurence in Europe, and last but not least, human infections were described. The practical part was focused on the detection of adult Echinococcus multilocula ris in the small intestine of red foxes (Vulpes vulpes) and determining the overall pre valence of occurence. All samples were examined microscopically during 2019 - 2021 at the State Veterinary Institute in Jihlava as a part of a project monitoring alveo coccosis disease funded by the State Veterinary Administration of the Czech Republic. This thesis demonstrated the occurence of E. multilocularis in the Czech Republic with a relatively high prevalence. Out of the total number of 867 samples taken from the gastrointestinal tract of foxes during a three-year investigation in selected districts, 309 positive specimens were detected, representing a prevalence of 35.6 %.
