  1. Introduction to Parasitology Suggested Textbook : Markell and Voge’s Medical Parasitology. 9th ed. John DT & Petri WA. 2006.

  2. Helminth 蠕蟲 (-ology) Nematoda 線蟲 Trematoda 吸蟲 Cestoda 絛蟲 Protozoa 原蟲 (protozoology) Arthropoda 節肢動物 (Entomology 昆蟲學) Vector 媒介 :biological 生物性, mechanical 機械性 Parasitic zoonoses 人畜共通寄生蟲病

  3. Parasite 寄生蟲: infection temporary暫時性, stationary定留性 ecto-, endo- obligatory 專性, facultative 兼性 pathogenic 致病性, non-pathogenic 非致病性 spurious 假性, pseudo- 假的 accidental 偶然 Host 宿主 : Final host (FH) (definitive host) 終宿主 Intermediate host (IH) 中間宿主 Paratenic host (transport host) 保幼宿主 Reservior host (RH) 保蟲宿主

  4. Mode of infection : oral, skin penetration, • congenital infection • Infective form 感染型 • Effects of parasites on hosts : • Compete for the nutrients • Feed on host tissue • Mechanical damage • Toxic substance • Others

  5. -osis -asis • Prevention : • Treatment of patients and reservoir hosts • Treatment of excreta of final hosts • Control of vectors and intermediate hosts • Prophylaxis against infections • Scientific nomenclature :
