PREVALENCE OF GASTROINTESTINAL PARASITES IN THOROUGHBRED HORSES (EQUUS CABALLUS) DURING THE PERIOD OF 2011 IN THE RACETRACK“LA RINCONADA”, CARACAS, VENEZUELA

Descripción del Articulo

Eight hundred and ninety four 2-year old thorough bred race horses (Equus caballus), 400 males and 494 females from breeding centers in the central region of Venezuela were studied for intestinal parasites. Stool specimens were examined using McMaster flotation technique (Willis-Molloy) during the q...

Stool specimens were examined using McMaster flotation technique (Willis-Molloy) during the quarantine period in 2011 at the Racetrack "La Rinconada" Caracas, Venezuela. Strongyle eggs were found in 553 horses, Parascaris equorum eggs in 69 specimens, and Oxyurus equi in 8. A total of 264 specimens were negative. The highest percentage of parasites observed was 62% Strongyles, 8% P. equorum, Oxyurus equi 1% and 30% were negative for the presence of parasite eggs. The presence of equine infected with strongyles remained within the range of 600-1900 HPG, while in P. equorum, HPG was 350-800 and O. equi had a mean of 400 HPG. These results suggest flaws in the health plan specifically to control parasites. It is possible that parasite resistance to conventional treatment as well as associations with climate changes may be related. In conclusion, we report a high prevalence of gastrointestinal parasites in Thoroughbred racing horses during the quarantine period at the Hippodrome "La Rinconada" Caracas, Venezuela.El objetivo de esta investigación fue determinar la prevalencia de parásitos gastrointestinales en caballos durante el periodo de cuarentena 2011 en el Hipódromo “La Rinconada”, Caracas, Venezuela. Se realizó un estudio coprológico por la técnica de flotación Mc master (Willis-Molloy) a un total de 894 equinos (Equus caballus), raza Pura Sangre de Carrera, 400 de sexo macho y 494 hembras, todos de 2 años de edad, procedentes de centros de cría de la región central de Venezuela, durante el periodo de cuarentena 2011. El mayor porcentaje de parásitos observado fue de 62% estróngilos, 8% Parascaris equorum, Oxyurus equi 1% y un 30% fueron negativos a la presencia de huevos de parásitos. La presencia de estróngilos se mantuvo por equino infestado entre un rango de 600-1900 HPG, mientras que P. equorum fue de 350-800 HPG y O. equi mantuvo un rango de 400 HPG. Estos resultados parecen indicar fallas en el plan sanitario específicamente en el control de parásitos. Es posible una resistencia parasitaria a los desparasitantes de uso convencional, pero también esto puede estar asociado a los cambios climáticos que modifican el ciclo biológico de este tipo de parásitos. En conclusión se reportó una alta prevalencia de parásitos gastrointestinales en equinos Pura Sangre de Carreras, durante el periodo de cuarentena en el Hipódromo “La Rinconada” Caracas, Venezuela.Asociación Peruana de Helmintología e Invertebrados Afines (APHIA) | Universidad Nacional Federico Villarreal2012-02-24info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdftext/htmlhttps://revistas.unfv.edu.pe/NH/article/view/1002Neotropical Helminthology; Vol. 6 Núm. 1 (2012): Neotropical Helminthology; 115 - 1191995-10432218-6425reponame:Revistas - Universidad Nacional Federico Villarrealinstname:Universidad Nacional Federico Villarrealinstacron:UNFVspahttps://revistas.unfv.edu.pe/NH/article/view/1002/886https://revistas.unfv.edu.pe/NH/article/view/1002/2753Derechos de autor 2021 Neotropical Helminthologyhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:ojs2.revistas.unfv.edu.pe:article/10022022-01-11T16:27:02Z
