None of anticoccidial vaccines (Trivalent TAM™, monovalent Neca™ and imported pentavalent Paracox(®)-5) contain Eimeria brunetti in Japan, which has not been regarded as a cause of coccidiosis, because of its low prevalence. However, we have recently reported the evidence of a high nationwide prevalence of this species. In this report, we describe the characteristics of E. brunetti which have n...

Gastrointestinal tract is one of the organ systems which infected by different pathogenic organisms specifically predilection sites for parasites (helminthes and protozoa) absorb nutrient predispose to another infection. The aim this review was provide an overview published information regarding epidemiology diagnostic approaches chicken helminthes infection coccidiosis. disease main constraint...

In an outbreak of concurrent infectious bursal disease (IBD) and caecal coccidiosis in a flock of 45 Nigerian indigenous chickens comprising of 36 unsexed 29 days old chicks and 9 adult hens, 75 per cent mortality was recorded. The adult hens were not affected.

INTRODUCTION The biology of these three diseases and the pharmacology and clinical aspects of the so-called classical drugs used for their treatment have been adequately covered by excellent review articles. Consequently, the following discussion will emphasize some of the newer findings. Since coccidiosis is included in this review, the importance of this disease in dOmestic animals is demonst...

A survey of the prevalence of subclinical coccidiosis in broiler-chickens was conducted in the municipality of Mashhad, Khorasan, Iran. Eighty-four chicken farms were randomly selected; from each farm, five birds per 106th week of age.6th week of age. The farm-level prevalence of subclinical coccidiosis was 38% (95% CI: 48 .47%). Uni- and multi-variable associations were tested between each va ...

BACKGROUND In this study, the presence of resistance to diclazuril, amprolium+ethopabate and salinomycin, representing some of the commonest anticoccidials in Iran's poultry industry, against three mixed Eimeria field isolates were investigated. METHODS Three Eimeria field isolates, collected from typical broiler farms in Iran, were propagated once, inoculated to 480 broilers, comprising 30 c...

Hepatic coccidiosis is considered as a major problem in rabbits which mortality rate may go high as a result of unhygienic maintenance with overcrowding. This study was aimed to determine abundance and pathologic changes of hepatic coccidiosis in rabbits of northwestern Iran. A total of 320 rabbits (110 New Zealand, 110 Angora, and 100 Native) in different sex and age groups were randomly selec...

Background: Coccidiosis is the most common parasitic disease in poultry, ionophore antibiotics are preferred drugs for controlling this disease. However, prolonged use of ionophores will result in Eimeria deformation and resistance to these drugs. Aims: The aim of this study was to compare the effects of probiotic and prebiotic, that is used to boost d...

coccidiosis and gizzard erosion are rare conditions in cage bird. a male zebra finch was presented with a history of watery diarrhea, anorexia, ruffled feathers, weight loss, and lethargy and died finally. gross necropsy revealed small areas of erosions and hemorrhages on the gizzard wall. the intestine was oedematous. the spleen appeared pale and small. the testes were asymmetric.histologicall...
