Occurrence of the coccidium Isospora suis in piglets
In the period October 2002–September 2004 we examined 2 996 samples of faeces of piglets at the age of 2–47 days. Samples were collected as so called “composite” ones from the pen floor. Samplings were done in 8 herds in Ceske Budejovice district. One herd was kept on the slatted floor, the other herds were housed on litter. Coprological examinations were carried out within 24 hours after sampl...
متن کاملPopulation dynamics and intra-litter transmission patterns of Isospora suis in suckling piglets under on-farm conditions.
The aim of this study was to investigate the intra-litter infection dynamics of Isospora suis under natural conditions, and to study any association between parasite transmission and the contamination level of the farrowing pen by applying different interventions in order to reduce the transmission of I. suis infection within the litter. The study was divided in 2 trials including in total 22 l...
متن کاملToltrazuril and sulphonamide treatment against naturally Isospora suis infected suckling piglets: is there an actual profit?
A study was carried out to assess the efficacy and the economic profit of prophylactic treatment against Isopsora suis with toltrazuril or with a sulfamethazine/trimethoprim combination in piglets from an intensive pig farm. Thirty-one litters were included in study. Eight litters were treated once with toltrazuril (20 mg/kg b.w.) at 3 days of age (Toltra group); 8 litters were treated with 2 m...
متن کاملExperimental infection of swine by Isospora suis Biester 1934 for species confirmation.
A survey of Isospora suis performed in 177 faecal samples from 30 swine farms detected thin wall type I. suis oocysts in seven samples. This type of oocyst measuring 23.9 by 20.7 microns had a retracted thin wall similar to that of the genus Sarcocystis. This type of oocysts, isolated from four different faecal samples, was inoculated in four-five-days-old piglets free of contamination in order...
متن کاملHuman coccidiosis caused by Isospora belli. A second case observed in Belgium.
In 1962, the first case of human coccidiosis caused by Isospora belli was reported from Belgium 1. It occurred in a patient of Armenian origin who had lived in Belgium from childhood and in whom 1sospora belli oocysts were discovered in the stools while the patient was suffering from persistent diarrhoea which had started when he was travelling in Iran. Unfortunately, the patient was lost sight...
