Prevalence of Linguatula serrata Infection in Domestic Bovids Slaughtered in Tabriz Abattoir, Iran |
|
چکیده انگلیسی مقاله |
Background: Linguatulosis is a rare zoonotic parasitic infection, in which human plays the role of both definitive and intermediate host and can be occasionally infected. This study determines the status of infection in livestock and its potential risk to men in the northwestern province of Azarbaijan-e-Sharghi, Iran. Methods: In a cross-sectional study from June 2007 to June 2008, 800 slaughtered animals including 400 cattle and 400 buffaloes from Tabriz abattoir in Azarbaijan-e-Sharghi Province were randomly selected and examined for L. serrata nymphs. After primary macroscopical inspection, all liver and lung samples were cut to small pieces, treated with a tissue digestion method and checked macroscopically and microscopically for free or encapsulated nymphs. Results: Out of 800 animals, 3 (0.38%) were found to be infected with L. serrata nymphs and the prevalence of infection in cattle and buffaloes was determined to be 0.25% and 0.5%, respectively. Conclusion: Linguatula infection occurs as an endemic zoonosis in the study area and has an active transmission life cycle. |
