Relative concentrations of four heavy metals in the parasites Protospirura muricola (Nematoda) and Inermicapsifer arvicanthidis (Cestoda) in their definitive host silvery mole-rat (Heliophobius argenteocinereus: Rodentia).

Original language description

The concentrations of four heavy metals were determined in the nematode Protospirura muricola, the tapeworm Inermicapsifer arvicanthidis and in the liver and in the muscle of infected and uninfected host the silvery mole-rat (Heliophobius argenteocinereus) from Malawi. There were no differences in heavy metal burdens between uninfected rodents and infected hosts. The mean burden of lead was higher in nematode and tapeworm parasites than in their host tissues. Concentrations of zinc and copper were higher in the parasites compared to the concentration in the host tissues, with exception being the differences between concentration in nematodes and in the liver of hosts for zinc, and between tapeworms and in the liver of hosts for copper. For cadmium, theonly burden in tapeworms was a higher in the liver of hosts. The degree of heavy metal burdens in these rodents parasites were relatively low compared to that of acanthocephalan and tapeworm parasites of fishes and birds.
