Trematodology is the study of a class of parasitic, flat-bodied worms. This book presents the principles and practices of modern trematodology, updating researchers, practitioners, and students with new information in immunology, biochemistry, physiology, and molecular biology. It includes practical information on parasitological techniques, emphasizing species of medical and veterinary importance - a key reference for parasitologists, biologists, medical, and veterinary personnel.
