“…[31], who reported medium and high prevalence values in farms from Cuba, Peru, and Venezuela, respectively. However, the results obtained in this study differ with those reported by other authors, who found lower prevalence values in cattle from different Costa Rica regions, Quindio and Cesar state, Colombia, respectively [32,33]. Furthermore, the result differs with those reported by Pulido-Medellin et al .…”

Aim: The study was conducted to determine the prevalence of gastrointestinal (GI) parasites in cattle and sheep from three municipalities in the Colombian Northeastern Mountain. Materials and Methods: Overall, 200 fecal samples were collected directly from the rectum in cattle and sheep. The presence of helminths eggs and coccidial oocysts in fecal samples was detected using McMaster and Dennis techniques. Identification of eggs or oocysts was done on the basis of morphology and size of the eggs or oocysts. Results: The global prevalence of GI parasites was 56.3%. Regarding the prevalence by municipalities, there was no statistical association (p>0.05), indicating that the prevalence was similar in the three municipalities. The prevalence of parasitic infection was higher in sheep (63%) as compared to that of cattle (50.5%), but the difference was nonsignificant (p>0.05). The most prevalent parasites were Eimeria spp., Fasciola hepatica, and Strongylida order. Regarding the results for Eimeria spp., different degrees of positivity were observed, but there was no statistical association (p>0.05) with respect to the age group. Likewise, there was no statistical association (p>0.05) between the prevalence for Strongylida order and F. hepatica with respect to the age group. Conclusion: Cattle and sheep in Colombian Northeastern Mountain were infected with helminths and coccidia. The prevalence values of GI parasites were moderate in both species warranting treatment. The presence of F. hepatica represents a risk factor to health public. Future studies are required to evaluate the parasitic dynamics throughout the year and the impact on animal production.

“…Los bovinos criollos suelen presentar mayor prevalencia que los mejorados (37)(38)(39)(40)(41)(42)(43)(44)(45)(46)(47)(48)(49)(50)(51)(52)(53)(54)(55). Los adultos presentan mayor prevalencia que los jóvenes (10,25,28,37,46).…”

El objetivo de la presente revisión literaria es recopilar publicaciones de 1985 a 2015 como artículos originales, comunicaciones cortas y reporte de casos sobre prevalencia de fasciola hepática en bovinos, ovinos y caprinos en el Perú. Así mismo, recolectar artículos científicos, resúmenes de congresos y tesis realizadas en universidades peruanas. Se realizó un estudio de tipo bibliométrico, descriptivo y transversal, con una estrategia de búsqueda en internet basada en la combinación de palabras clave y operadores booleanos usados en las bases de datos de Science Direct, Web of Knowledge, Scopus y Proquest. Perú presenta muchas zonas hiperendémicas de fascioliasis en bovinos y ovinos (> 50 %) y se encontraron dentro de las más elevadas del mundo. Los caprinos solo alcanzan índices mesoendémicos de infección (10-50 %). El grupo etario de boca llena presenta mayor prevalencia en las tres especies, pero el sexo no muestra diferencias significativas.

“…In Colombia, this parasitosis has increased during the last 25 years, given that climate change has favored the proliferation of its host (an air-breathing snail from the Lymnaea family) to new microenvironments, consequently, bringing the proliferation of the parasite (Uribe et al 2014). All this added to the difficulty in diagnosing, especially during the pre-patent and patent phases of the disease, where the clinical signs are not noticeable, which is why detection of parasitic antigens is a diagnostic alternative (Recalde-Reyes et al 2014).…”

Fasciolosis is a zoonotic parasitic disease, which affects humans and animals; diagnosed through noncommercial immunoassay tests that cannot be used on the field. Thereby, establishing the optimal conditions to develop a latex agglutination technique with IgG and IgM antibodies directed against excretion/secretion antigens of sp. is a priority. Latex particles were sensitized with IgG and IgM antibodies directed against excretion/secretion antigens of sp. The specificity of the antibodies was determined against antigens of different helminths and protozoa; the sensitivity and specificity of the test was evaluated against a previously standardized direct ELISA. The coupling rates of the IgG and IgM antibodies were 85.77 and 100%, respectively. The minimum detectable concentration of sp. excretion/secretion antigens, diluted in a phosphate-buffered saline, was 1.589 mg/mL(IgG) and 0.158 mg/mL(IgM) and for the antigens incorporated in the bovine cattle stool it was 3.178 mg/mL(IgG) and 1.589 mg/mL(IgM). The test showed crossed reaction against sp., and sp. antigens. Agreement of the IgG and IgM latex test against the ELISA test was of 78.78 and 96.96%, respectively; the specificity found was of 100% for both tests and sensitivity was 78.79% (IgG) and 96.97% (IgM). This work standardized the latex agglutination technique to detect sp. antigens in bovine cattle stool.
