“…This result was very close to the report on helminths prevalence in rabbit's in Jeonbuk area (Tae-Wook et al 2003) and relatively higher than the previous findings in Turkey (Sürsal et al 2014). However, the prevalence rates were relatively lower than that recorded previously in eastern Scotland (14.2%) (Boag 1985) and in Egypt (26.7%) .…”

“…In Turkey parasites of rats and mice were investigated (Go ksu et al, 1972;Burgu et al, 1986;Bıyıkog lu, 1996;Yazar et al, 2002;Şenlik et al, 2005;Beyhan et al, 2010). Also some researchers have been studied on parasites of rabbits and guinea pigs (Bıyıkog lu, 1996; Buluş and O g e, 1999;Gu rler and Dog anay, 2007;Beyhan et al, 2013), and a study was on parasites of hamsters in Turkey (Su rsal et al, 2014).…”

The aim of this study was to determine the parasites of laboratory and pet animals in Istanbul, Turkey. A total of 128 cages including 279 animals as 115 rabbits from 82 cages, 75 mice from 5 cages, 28 rats from 7 cages, 26 guinea pigs from 23 cages and 35 hamsters from 11 cages were used. Faecal samples were obtained from 8 commercial pet shops in 6 different districts of Istanbul and 2 laboratory animal suppliers. All samples were examined by flotation technique using saturated salt solution. Eimeria spp. oocysts were found in the faeces of rabbits, hamsters and mice, and the prevalence of the infections were 29.6%, 28.6% and 20%, respectively. Two of 115 rabbits were infected with Passalurus ambiguus (1.7%). Trichurid eggs were determined in 2 of 35 hamsters (5.7%). Mice were infected with Syphacia spp., Aspiculuris spp. and the infection ratios were 20% and 40% respectively. Out of 28 rats, 20 were infected with only Syphacia spp. (71.4%). No parasites were observed in guinea pigs' faeces. Laboratory animals were used not only as experimental animals but also as pets. Therefore coprological examinations for parasite eggs and oocysts are important for treatment and control of the infections in these animals and for protecting the human health because of zoonotic potential of some species.

“…Кролівництво -перспективна галузь, одна з найприбутковіших у сільському господарстві. Негативним аспектом у розведенні кролів є те, що вони дуже сприйнятливі до багатьох інфекційних (Laakkonen et al, 2006;Kos'yanchuk, 2017) та інвазійних хвороб (Darzi et al, 2007;Sürsal et al, 2014;Okumu et al, 2014).…”

Pathomorphological changes in parenchymatose organs of rabbits in case of chronic passalurosis

et al. 2019

Pathomorphological changes, developing in case of pasalurosis chronic course in rabbits are described in the article. The research was held on ten rabbits of Large Grey breed, which were held on household farms of Poltava region. The diagnosing was complex: based on anamnesis data, clinical symptoms’ analysis, and the results of pathomorphological examination. The fragments of the liver, spleen, and kidneys were taken for histological analysis. While making histological analysis of the spleen it was revealed that lymphoid nodules were enlarged, some of them were of uniform structure, and others were in the state of hyperplasia. Non-uniformity of structure in addition to changing the size was registered in those nodules: there was less concentration of lymphoid cells in their central part and more concentration on the periphery. The situation was contrary in separate lymphoid nodules. The red pulp consisted of a large number of lymphoid cells and erythrocytes, the largest number of which were registered in the zones adjoining the places of lymphoid nodules’ location. Sometimes there were megakaryocytes in the field of vision. It was established, that blood filling of arteries was less than normal. In case of using some preparations, bilirubin inclusions were found at having big enlargements in red pulp. Grainy and fatty hepatocytes’ dystrophies, and also lymphohistiocytic interstitial hepatitis were also registered. At the same time, renal corpuscles were enlarged. Rather big spaces, filled with transparent substance containing vessel and cellular fragments (detritus), were revealed in the majority of them between glomeruli and the capsule.Capsule epithelial cells were destroyed in some places. Petechial hemorrhages were registered inside glomeruli. The destruction of separate podocytes and deep cells was noticed. The tubular epithelial cells were enlarged in size, and in some cases they were of cylinder, but not cubic shape; the spaces of such tubular were becoming correspondingly less. The epithelial cell cytoplasm of the tubular in some cases was not uniformand it was of cloudy-grey color: in other cases it had rather large colorless areas and, probably, looked like lipid inclusions (which were washed out from the cells as a result solvent impact during making histological preparations). Concentrations of eosinophilic masses (protein cylinders) sometimes containing certain amount of erythrocytes were often found in canaliculi spaces. Sometimes the destruction of epithelial cells was registered in the tubulеs, and their fragments were found in spaces. As a result of histological examination, the diffuse lymphohistiocytic infiltration in the renal interstitial tissue was found.
