Abstract
Liver fluke Fasciola hepatica remains an important agent of foodborne trematode disease producing great economic losses due to its negative effect on productivity of grazing livestock in temperate areas. The prevailing control strategies based on antihelminthic drugs are not long term sustainable due to widespread resistance. Hence, vaccination appears as an attractive option to pursue for parasite eradication.
