عنوان انگلیسی A Preliminary Parasitological Survey of Hepatozoon Spp. Infec-tion in Dogs in Mashhad, Iran
چکیده انگلیسی مقاله ABSTRACT Background: We attempted to determine the prevalence of Hepatozoon spp. infection in Mashhad, northeast of Iran, via blood smear parasitology. Methods: The prevalence was investigated by examination of blood smear parasitology, using blood samples collected from 254 dogs (51 strays and 203 privately owned-dogs). Results: Two stray dogs (2/51; 3.92%) and two privately-owned dogs (2/203; 0.98%) were infected with Hepatozoon spp. Therefore, as per blood smear parasitology, the prevalence of Hepatozoon spp. infection was 1.57% (4/254). Sixteen out of 254 dogs (6.29%) were infested with ticks; all of which were Rhipicephalus sanguineus. One of the dogs infected with Hepatozoon spp. exhibited ticks at the time of examination. Concurrent infection with Ehrlichia canis and Leishmania infantum was not detected in the four Hepatozoon spp. infected dogs. Conclusion: This is the first epidemiological study on the prevalence of Hepatozoon spp. infection in dogs in Iran.   Keywords : Hepatozoon , Prevalence, Blood, Parasitology, Dog, Iran
