Abstract Hard ticks are among the most important blood sucking arthropods that transmit pathogens to humans and animals. This study was designed determine prevalence, mapping, geographical distribution, seasonal activity of hard tick species infesting common domestic wild mammals in various districts Riyadh Province, Saudi Arabia, during period January December 2017. In total, 10,832 adult were collected from bodies 8,435 animals belonging 18 different mammalian species. The preserved 70%...
Background: Myrtus communis (M. communis) is a wild aromatic plant used for traditional herbal medicine that can be demonstrated in insecticidal, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial activity of its essential oils (MCEO). Aim: The present study aimed to evaluate the prophylactic effects M. oil (MCEO) against chronic toxoplasmosis induced by Tehran strain Toxoplasma gondii mice. Methods: Gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) analysis was performed determine chemical...
This study utilized infectivity bioassays in cats and mice to assess the efficacy of inactivation Toxoplasma gondii cysts experimentally infected sheep meat tissues subjected chilling, freezing, heating, microwave cooking, gamma ray irradiation. Heating at 60 degrees C or 100 for 10 minutes, freezing either -10 3 days -20 2 days, irradiation doses 75 krad was sufficient kill tissue cysts. Meanwhile, neither cooking a nor chilling 5
Endemic waterborne zoonosis frequently occurs in both developed and less countries. Thus, bio-surveillance of is a "necessity" for the implementation effective preventive public health measures Egyptian rural areas. The primitive individual water supplies created by agriculture population, primarily from ground water, usually maximize customers' exposure to impurity pathogens via diffused humans animal excreta or wastages. current study aimed evaluate frequency zoonotic within infiltrated...
Background and Objective: Toxoplasma gondii is a zoonotic opportunistic cyst-forming protozoan has usual clonal population of three virulent human animal genotypes which differ according to their virulence in mice epidemiological patterns.Animals are impact regarded as high prevalent sources for toxoplasmosis via meat containing viable T. tissue cysts.However, serological assays not enough approving cysts or confirm types harboring animals so the current study was aimed evaluate hazard...
Toxoplasmosis is an important worldwide foodborne zoonotic disease. Infected cattle meats considered a serous cause of human toxoplasmosis. Here, this study assesses the infection with Toxoplasma gonddi (T. gondii) in using meat juice samples from diaphragmatic muscles collected at slaughter. An house indirect enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and commercial latex agglutination test (LAT) followed by immunoblotting were developed on (fluids) tachyzoites locally isolated T. gondii...
Abstract Background This study was conducted to detect the presence of T. gondii in milk and blood samples using three different assays: enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), polymerase chain reaction (PCR), loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP). Whole blood, serum, were collected from goats ( n = 156), sheep 261), camels 108) governorates Egypt December 2019 February 2021 screened by ELISA for anti- Toxoplasma IgG antibodies before DNA extraction. The target gene detected...
Background and Objective: Domestic animals, including camels, in Saudi Arabia suffer from various diseases, among which tick-borne infections are important because they reduce the productivity of these animals.However, knowledge pathogens camels is very limited, so aims this study were to quantify abundance distribution tick species infesting different districts Riyadh province use molecular tools detect both ticks blood samples.Materials Methods: A total 218 collected 116 5 Riyadh.The camel...
Toxoplasmosis is one of the most common diseases prevalent in world, caused by a coccidian parasite Toxoplasma gondii which infects humans, animals and birds. Poultry consider reliable human source food addition it considered an intermediate host transmission disease to humans. Trails isolation local T. chicken strain through bioassay suspected infected tissues mice was carried out isolated confirmed as being using Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR). Seroprevalence antibodies against sera six...
Cryptosporidiosis is mainly a problem in neonatal farm animals.Cryptosporidium parvum the most commonly found entero-pathogen during 1st weeks of life calves, lambs, foals, piglets and goat kids considered to be an important agent etiology diarrhea syndrome.The parasite frequently acts alone but losses are more pronounced when concurrent entero-pathogens present.Economic associated with cryptosporidiosis retarded growth mortality number hard estimate costs resulting from interventions...
Brucellosis and coxiellosis/Q fever are bacterial infections caused by Brucella species Coxiella burnetii, respectively; camels highly susceptible to both pathogens. Trichinellosis is a parasitic infection various Trichinella nematode species. Reportedly, experimental with spp., but information on this potential host scarce. All three of zoonotic nature thus great public health concern. The current study aimed determine antibodies against the pathogens in recently imported (n = 491) from...
Portions of heart, liver, skeletal and diaphragmatic muscles obtained from 150 slaughtered horses at Giza-Zoo abattoir were used for bioassays in mice cats. T. gondii tachyzoites isolated successfully the peritoneal exudates inoculated 6-8 days post inoculation with pooled horse tissues. Whereas, tissue cysts containing bradyzoites detected impression smears brain on 45th or more infection. The oocysts feces cats 3-6 feeding tissues cysts. became sporulated within 3-5 2.5% Potassium...
Foot and Mouth Disease (FMD) is one of the most contagious viral diseases mammals that have an ability to cause high economic losses in susceptible cloven-hoofed animals.In addition to, milk productions occurred form sudden severe drop yield.The aim present work was throw light on different methods for diagnosis control FMD affect dairy small ruminants; sheep goats.Sheep goats play a role epidemiology, as they become carriers act reservoirs infection.Diagnosis achieved by many techniques...
C RYPTOSPORIDIUM parvum (C.parvum) is a worldwide zoonotic protozoan parasite in- fects most mammalian hosts causing major health problem.The present study investigated the efficacy of ginger (Zingiber officinale), ginseng (Panax ginseng) and sage (Salvia officinalis) methanolic extracts on progression cryptosporidiosis in experimental mice.Forty five mice experimentally infected with C. were treated medicinal plants (ginger, sage) as compared to reference drug, Nitazoxanide (NTZ).Mice fecal...
Sheep and goats represent an essential source of meat, milk wool production. Infectious viral diseases small ruminants hinder the expected benefits from these animals. The aim present review was to shed light on diagnostic procedures monitoring some important infectious that affect ruminants. Border disease (BDV) is caused by Pestiviruses. affected herds are usually expressed high rates infertility production underweighted-lambs. Affected lambs die within days after lambing. A commercial...
Toxoplasmosis has been associated with economic and public health concerns due to abortion in humans animals. Detection for the presence of anti-Toxoplasma gondii antibodies sera 174 healthy sheep (IgG) 89 aborted women (IgG, IgM, IgG avidity) using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay T. 59 milk samples identified by PCR. The primary risk factors seropositive were also analyzed. Relatively higher seroprevalence gondii, 62.6%, was recorded than 57.3% women. IgM/IgG antibody responses 42.7%,...
