Coccidiosis caused by Eimeria spp. is a parasitic disease with high morbidity that affects various animal species, including rabbits. In rabbits, eleven species have been primarily identified through microscopic examination of oocysts; however, this technique has certain limitations make it challenging to differentiate between species. The main objective study was morphologically identify infecting rabbits in Romania, as well confirm these identifications using molecular biology techniques,...
Linguatula serrata (Frölich, 1789) is a widespread parasite known as the tongue worm belonging to family Linguatulidae. The adult form of usually located in upper respiratory tract domestic and wild carnivores while larval forms are visceral organs intermediate hosts (various herbivorous mammals). Twenty-four European brown hares (Lepus europaeus) were examined this study, which two positive with L. nymphs. collected nymphs morphologically using electron-microscopic analysis molecularly by...
The general practice of sheep farmers in gastrointestinal helminth control is based on the use commercial drugs, making chemoresistance very common. Considering this, our study focused biological parasitism using high-tannin plant hay. Three groups 30 animals each were formed. group was additionally fed meadow hay, while other two received chicory (group 2) and bird’s foot trefoil hay 3). number strongyle eggs, shed through faeces (EPG), surveyed for 28 days all animals. amounts total...
Rumen flukes are geographically widespread trematodes affecting wild and domestic ruminants. The juvenile forms, which found in the small intestine, more pathogenic compared to adults. Severe diarrhoea weight loss major clinical signs, disease might be fatal severely infested individuals. In last decade, paramphistomosis has been described as an emerging parasitic Europe. This study aimed identify rumen fluke species ruminants from western Romania. Fifty-two pre-stomachs obtained roe deer...
Amongst ruminant livestock diseases, the gastrointestinal (GIT) helminths and protozoan parasite infections result in a significant socio-economic concern worldwide. During period between October 2017 November 2018, total of 788 fresh fecal specimens from cattle (n = 303) sheep 485) were screened for presence parasites two historical regions (Crisana Banat) western Romania. Laboratory processing samples with simple salt flotation (Willis) sedimentation techniques, followed by microscopic...
Ascariasis is frequently diagnosed in the dog population, and Toxocara canis main agent that causes larva migrans syndrome humans. In big cities, number of pets constantly increasing, especially canids. Romania, addition to dogs with owners, a large without owners are found public green spaces. Timisoara one largest cities population approximately 306.462 people. present study, seroprevalence anti-T. antibodies was investigated different age groups using ELISA method. The samples were taken...
Introduction: Gastrointestinal parasitic infestations are one of the major health concerns worldwide; hence, this study aimed to investigate efficacy a doramectin-based anti-parasitic drug. Methods: To achieve goal, we collected fresh faecal samples (50-100 g) from 20 sheep and cattle, which were subsequently examined through coproparasitic methods. Results: Pre-therapeutic coproscopic screening cattle led identification digestive strongyles, Eimeria spp., Balantidium coli, Cestodes,...
