“…These results were in agreement with studies (9,23). These chemical tests are playing an important role in the recognizing of the physiology and immunity and the metabolic role of the intermediate phase of the Taenia (24).…”

This study aimed to estimate the prevalence of Coenurus cerebralis of Tenia multiceps in sheep of Nineveh governorate. One handed and thirty-six sheep heads were examined for the presence of coenurus cysts 31 (22.8%) were infected. The younger were more affected than the adults. There were no significant differences between the number of infected males and females. The clinical signs varied from one animal to another which consisted of neurological disorders manifested by depression, bending of the head to one side, walking in a circular movement and paralysis in the hind limbs, while some animals did not give the clinical symptoms despite the existence of cyst. The number of cysts were ranged from 1 to 4 cysts/animal. The size of these cyst was ranged from 0.5 to 4 cm, and the volume of fluid in these cysts were ranged from 1 to 6 ml while the number of protoscolices in the cyst were ranged from 60-360 protoscolex, the mean length of large and small hooks was 179.95 µm respectively. The study also considered the identification of some chemical constituents of fluid of coenurus cyst such as glucose, total protein, cholesterol, triglycerides, calcium, sodium, potassium, urea and pH.

“…The sera were collected from 77 positive tuberculin reactor animals. Centrifugation separated the serum at 3000 round per minute for 10 minutes, the serum aspirated carefully by pipette into dry, sterile and labeled test tubes, storage at -20°C until used (14)(15)(16) and after slaughtering of 77 animals, postmortem examination was applied and tissue samples (livers, spleens, and lungs lymph nodes) and lymph nodes showing tuberculous-like lesions were collected for bacteriological examination were collected.…”

A cross-sectional study was carried out from November, 2015 to April, 2018 to determine the prevalence and identify the risk factors of BTB using the comparative intradermal tuberculin (CIDT) test on 5327 dairy cattle in 16 dairy herds in mid-delta, Alexandria Road and Upper Egypt districts. Questionnaires used to collect data on herd size and management. The herd and individual animal prevalence at cut-off ≥4mm were 68.75% (95%, CI: 46 to 91.4) and1.67% (95%, CI: 1.3to 2.1) respectively. The individual prevalence was significantly associated with age, breed and different location of farms and density of cattle in yard. On herd level, history of BTB in the farm, management practices, raising of different species in the same facility and newly purchased cattle are important risk factors for BTB. The postmortem examination of positive reactors revealed 66 (85.71%) out of 77slaughtered cattle with visible lesions and 11(14.29%) with non-visible lesions. Bacteriological examination revealed 74.24% (49/66) from visible lesions and 9.09% (1/11) from non-visible lesions were Mycobacterium bovis. The indirect enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (IELISA) results revealed 31(40.26%) showed positive result including 29 (93.6%) visible lesions and 2(6.4%) nonvisible lesions. In conclusion, the prevalence high in herds with poor management condition, raised different species in the same facility, had previous history of BTB infection and purchased new animals. At animal level Holstein breed, 3-6 years age, kept in high density and located in mid-delta district were at higher risk to be reactor to comparative intradermal tuberculin (CIDT) test.

“…Endoparasitic infestations cost the livestock industry many millions of pounds each year through losses in productivity and the costs of control measures. Effective control of these endemic ubiquitous diseases is important, particularly given the expanding world population and the expectation of increasing demand for ruminant products (Ohiolei et al, 2019;Mohammed and Kadir, 2020;Muku et al, 2020).…”

The purpose of our research was to study the parasitic fauna and infection of sheep with parasites in the northern and southern regions of the Republic of Kazakhstan. For this, we conducted a study to determine the species diversity of sheep parasites. The study was set from 2010-2020 years on infected sheep in the northern and southern parts of the Republic of Kazakhstan. The experiments were conducted at the Department of Veterinary Medicine of S. Seifullin KazATU and the KazNIVI in Almaty. The species diversity of parasites of adult sheep was studied. The materials for parasitological laboratory studies were sheep feces taken from 50 sheep. Vital diagnostics of helminthiasis were carried out by scatological studies of 50 sheep using the well-known methods of Fulleborn, Weid, and Boyahchyan. To establish the timing of infection, selective coprolarvoscopic studies of fecal samples taken from pastures were carried out. First, the invasive larvae were isolated from fecal samples by the Berman-Orlov method. Differential diagnosis of trichostrongylides was carried out according to the method of Y.Y. Shumakovich. Among the sheep of the Akmola and Karaganda regions, strongylatoses parasitizing in the gastrointestinal tract are recorded: Nematodyrosis, ostertagiosis, hemonhoz, marshallagiasis, esophagostomosis, and, less often, bunostomosis. The development of eggs and larvae of the invasive stage in pasture conditions is noted at the end of the first decade of May. The first cases of infection of lambs are observed in late May-early June. Thus, based on the three-year results obtained, it can be concluded that the absence of antiparasitic measures leads to infection of almost all livestock within 5-7 months and in subsequent years, reinfection occurs, which ultimately causes a decrease in productivity and increase mortality, especially among young animals up to 1.5 years of age.
