Chronic Intestinal Coccidiosis in Man: Intestinal Morphology and Response to Treatment

Evaluation of amprolium and toltrazuril efficacy in controlling natural intestinal rabbit coccidiosis

This trial was undertaken with the objective to evaluate the efficacy of amprolium, toltrazuril and their combination in rabbits naturally infected with Eimeria species (32 × 103 ± 4.63 oocysts per gram (OPG) of faeces). Thirty-six rabbits (11 weeks old with average body weight (BW) 2000 ± 75 g), were randomly allocated into six groups (six kits each), namely, negative untreated and was retaine...

An Overview of Intestinal Coccidiosis in Sheep and Goats

Coccidial infection is universal in sheep and goats, and coccidiosis can be a significant problem in the young of both species. The coccidian are members of the protistan phylum Apicomplexa, subclass Coccidiasina, intracellular parasites, characterized at some stage of the life cycle by a typical apical complex of organelles at one end of the organism. Members of the genus Eimeria and Isospora ...

Morphology of the intestinal arterioles in chronic human hypertension.

The nature of the increased vascular resistance in chronic hypertension has been the subject of much investigation and speculation. The evidence strongly suggests that this resistance is mainly at arteriolar level; hence the arterioles are often referred to as the resistance vessels. When hypertension was first recognized, it was thought that structural changes in the arterioles and capillaries...

Intestinal coccidiosis in a spinner dolphin (Stenella longirostris).

Intestinal coccidiosis was diagnosed histologically in the small intestine of a spinner dolphin (Stenella longirostris). Numerous intralesional coccidia were present in mucosal epithelial cells. Schizonts, gamonts, and unsporulated oocysts were seen. Schizonts were up to 30 x 20 microm and contained up to 16 merozoites, which measured 10-12 x 2 microm. Unsporulated oocysts were about 9-12 x 8-1...
