sarcocyst is one of the most important protozoa belonged to apicomplexa. this parasite is prevalent among warm blooded animals throughout the world. in the present work, sarcocystis gigantea was identified by amplification of 18s rrna gene using pcr- rflp. in this regard macroscopic cysts of sarcocystis were collected from esophagus and intra costal muscles of sheep in shahriar slaughterhouse. ...

background: to differentiate sarcocystis macro-cyst-forming species in slaughtered sheep in babol area, mazandaran province, sequence analysis of 18s rrna gene was performed. methods: overall, 150 slaughtered sheep were examined macroscopically in slaughterhouse, babol and intra-abdominal and diaphragm muscles tissues infected with macro-cyst of sarcocystis spp. were collected in 2013. one macr...

Sarcocystis is one of the most prevalent parasites of domestic ruminants worldwide. This study was aimed to determine prevalence of Sarcocystis infection and molecular discrimination of Sarcocystis gigantea and Sarcocystis medusiformis infecting domestic sheep. Tissue samples from 638 sheep slaughtered at Urmia abattoir were randomly collected from February 2011 to January 2012. Genomic DNA ext...

There is considerable confusion concerning the structure and synonymity of macroscopic sarcocysts in goats. In the present work, ultrastructural and molecular study on fat and thin macrocysts of Sarcocystis isolated from naturally infected goats were investigated. Two forms of macrocystic sarcocysts were collected from fresh oesophagus, diaphragm, skeletal muscles and heart of slaughtered goats...

Background: Sarcocystosis in South American camelids (SAC) is an important parasitic disease which results in economical loss due to carcass condemnation. Meat products from camelids are significant source of animal protein in several American countries. Sarcocystis spp. producing macroscopical cysts in these animals have been nominated as S. aucheniae, S. tilopodi, and S. guanicoecanis. The ai...

ABSTRACT: The brown howler monkey (Alouatta guariba clamitans) is a primate species widely distributed in South America. Infections by protozoa are common primates. However, studies on primates Brazil scarce, so the goal of this study was to investigate DNA from apicomplexan Neospora caninum, Sarcocystis spp. and Toxoplasma gondii tissues A. clamitans. extraction performed tissue samples heart,...
