Özet
Amaç: Araştırmanın amacı farklı tür ve yaşta bulunan ruminantlarda faklı mevsimlerde Fasciola sp. enfeksiyonunun prevalansını belirlemektir. Gereç ve Yöntem: Gayta örnekleri Bangladeş’in Kishoregonj bölgesinde dört mevsim (kış, ilkbahar, yaz ve sonbahar) süresince toplandı. Hayvanlar tür ve yaşlarına (<2 yıl ve >2 yıl) ayrıldı. Natif ve sedimentasyon teknikleri kullanı- larak yumurtalar belirlendi. Bulgular: 6220 ruminantın 2319 adetinin Fasciola sp. ile enfekte (%37) olduğu belirlendi. Enfeksiyon oranı mandalarda (%44.49) sığırlar (%37.90) ve keçilerden (%32) yüksek belirlenirken, en az koyunlarda (%30.91) belirlendi. Enfeksiyon en fazla sonbahar (%47.34) en az yazın (%26.96) gözlendi (p<0.05). Fasciola sp. yaşlı hayvanlarda (%39.63) gençlerden (%33.95) daha fazla belirlendi. Öneri: Araştırma sonucu ruminantlarda hastalığın kontrol edilmesine ve sanitasyon programına ihtiyaç olduğunu göstermektedir.
Aim: The objective of the study was to determine the prevalence of Fasciola sp. infection in ruminants of different species, age groups and in seasons. Materials and Methods: Faecal samples were collected during four seasons (winter, spring, summer and autumn) from Kishoregonj district of Bangladesh. Animals were divided into species and ages (<2 years and >2 years). Native and sedimentation techniques were used to determine the eggs. Results: Out of the 6220 ruminants, 2319 were infected (37%) with Fasciola sp. The infection rate was highest in buffaloes (44.49%) then cattle (37.90%), goat (32%) and lowest was recorded in sheep (30.91%). Maximum rate of infection was recorded (p<0.05) in autumn (47.34%) and lowest rate was recorded in summer (26.96%). Fasciola sp. was observed higher in older animals (39.63%) than younger (33.95%). Conclusion: This result therefore calls for an improved disease control and adequate sanitation programme for ruminants.
