Abstract:
Fecal analysis is commonly used to estimate prevalence and intensity of intestinal helminths in wild carnivores, but few studies have assessed the reliability of fecal flotation compared to analysis of intestinal tracts. We investigated sensitivity of the double centrifugation sugar fecal flotation and kappa agreement between fecal flotation and postmortem examination of intestines for helminths of coyotes (Canis latrans). We analyzed 57 coyote carcasses that were collected between October 2010 and March 2011 in the metropolitan area of Calgary and Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. Before analyses, i

Abstract:
Fecal flotation is routinely used to identify feline helminth infections in clinical practice, but it is known to have limitations of sensitivity, particularly for cestodes. To determine the prevalence of helminths in a contemporary population of cats and evaluate the ability of fecal flotation to detect these infections, helminths were recovered from intestinal tracts removed from 116 adult cats humanely euthanized by an animal control shelter in northeastern Oklahoma. Results were compared to those of fecal flotation performed using both passive and centrifugal techniques. Helminths were ide

Abstract:
This study was carried out to determine the prevalence of Echinococcus spp. in stray dogs in Van province by copro-antigen ELISA. Fecal samples were obtained from 150 dogs. Firstly, it was examined for Taenia spp. eggs by zinc sulphate flotation technique. After that presence of Echinococcus spp. coproantigens was examined by coproantigen ELISA test using a commercial coproantigen ELISA kit (Combined kit) (COMBINED BIOTECH CO., LTD, Shenzhen, P. R. China). 15.3% of the dogs were infected with Taenia spp. The prevalence of Echinococcus spp. coproantigen in dogs was 29.3%. In the fecal examinati

Numerous bipolar plugged capillarid eggs were detected on a routine centrifugal fecal flotation examination of a 2 yr old castrated male boxer-Chinese shar pei mixed-breed. The eggs were identified as Eucoleus boehmi (E. boehmi), the nasal capillarid, based on size and shell wall surface morphology. The dog had a history of chronic sneezing (&amp;gt; 5 times/day) and intermittent postexercise nasal discharge. Currently, there are no anthelmintics approved for use in dogs for the treatment of E. boehmi. Treatment of the dog with 0.5–1 mg/kg milbemycin oxime was ineffective, but treatment with 2

Abstract:
Public health is a crucial aspect of disease prevention efforts. One significant health issue in many countries, including Indonesia, is Soil Transmitted Helminth (STH) infection, often caused by poor sanitation and lack of environmental cleanliness awareness. STH, typically caused by Ascaris lumbricoides, Trichuris trichiura, and hookworm, can have severe health impacts, particularly on children. Fecal examination methods, especially flotation techniques using ZnS (zinc sulfide) and 0.9% NaCl (sodium chloride) solutions, are commonly employed for STH detection. However, optimizing flotation m

Compared with pretreatment, fewer foxes in all groups were infected with helminths one week and 3 weeks after treatment.
