Waleed Ahmed

Completed Master's and PhD in veterinary Parasitology at Cairo University, Egypt, in 2008 and 2011, respectively. Since then, I have been engaged in various research, teaching, and industry collaboration activities, honing my skills and knowledge in parasitology. Notably, I was awarded a Borlaug fellowship at Texas A&M University in 2015, where I also participated in the Agriculture Field Day at Prairie View A&M
University. Subsequently, I received a Fulbright postdoctoral scholarship at Texas A&M University in 2019. During my time at Texas A&M University, I have made significant contributions to the field, with a particular
focus on the parasitology of sheep and goats. I am aware of the importance of addressing parasite-related challenges facing goats at Prairie View A&M University, and I am eager to apply my expertise to contribute to solutions in this area. With over 60 international publications in veterinary and medical parasitology, including research on anthelmintic resistance of Haemonchus contortus, I have established collaborations
with scientists across the USA and Australia.

• ABSTRACT
• The present study was carried out to determine the efficacy of the Egg containing L2 antigen of Toxocara canis in protection the rabbits against the Visceral larva migran (VLM)
• Furthermore, estimation the efficacy of the EG antigen in the serological diagnosis of VLM in the rabbits, characterization of the EG antigen by using SDS-PAGE was included
• Determination the specific epitopes of the used antigen by WB; studying the cross reaction between T
• Canis and T
• Vitulorum and description the histopathological changes due to migration of T
• Canis larvae were estimated
• The SDS- PAGE showed seven bands with MWS 135, 80, 45, 35, 28, 24 and 22 KDa
• Bands of 28 and 24 kDa appear along the course of the immunization and still post infection so it is the protective bands from which the purified vaccine may prepared
• The histopathological changes were very characteristic since the immunized group showed retention of the larvae in the liver within the eosinophilic granuloma
• So the main effect of the vaccine was retention of the larvae in the liver and prevention their further migration to the internal organs and stimulation the immune system mainly T helper cells

• ABSTRACT
• Haemonchus contortus is the most important GIT parasite of small ruminants
• It is prevalent all over the world
• This study discussed the prevalence, morphology and biology of H
• Contortus
• Moreover, evaluation WWE (whole worm extract), Larval extract and Ultraviolet attenuated larvae as a vaccine against the H
• Contortus infection in goats was carried out
• The WWE may be candidate as vaccine (recorded the highest worm reduction, reduction in the worm length, sterile worm in some individual of the group in a comparison with the other groups)
