1892 G. Fleming tr. L. G. Neumann Treat. Parasites vi. i. 662 The Sarcocysts of Miescher are very frequent—at least, in certain countries and at certain periods.
1932 S. H. Gaiger & G. O. Davies Vet. Pathol. & Bacteriol. xxii. 333 The sarcocyst in the muscles is the only stage of the parasite which is known.
1932 S. H. Gaiger & G. O. Davies Vet. Pathol. & Bacteriol. xxii. 334 Sarcocysts may die in situ.
1938 Southwell & Kirshner Guide Vet. Parasitol. & Entomol. (ed. 2) ii. 19 Sarcocysts are included in the Sporozoa, though it is doubtful if they really belong to this class.
1970 K. V. F. Jubb & P. C. Kennedy Pathol. Domest. Animals (ed. 2) I. ii. 121/2 Of those parasites with an affinity for muscle, the ubiquitous Sarcosporidia are the most common. The sarcocysts may be found in the Purkinje cells as well as in the myocardial fibres and normally appear to be of little detriment.
