To determine the prevalence of Cryptosporidium spp. and other zoonotic enteric parasites in a sample of domestic dogs and cats in the Niagara region, Ontario, 5 of 26 clinics invited by mail survey reported their parasitological findings over 24 months. Stool samples collected by 1 clinic over 68 days were investigated for parasites by using several techniques (fecal concentration, acid-fast staining, and a Cryptosporidium immunoassay). The 5 clinics that provided data indicated Toxocara spp. as the most frequent finding. Parasitological study of 111 stool samples showed a high overall positivity rate in samples from both dogs (40%) and cats (36.6%). Cryptosporidium spp. antigen was detected in 7.4% and 7.3%, Toxocara spp. in 14.2% and 12.2%, and Giardia spp. 7.1% and 2.4% of dog and cat samples, respectively. The high prevalence of zoonotic parasites in the Niagara region is important, and increased awareness of their potential threat to human health is necessary. Additionally, further research into the zoonotic capacity of Cryptosporidium spp. and Giardia spp. is necessary.
为确定安大略省尼亚加拉地区家犬和家猫样本中隐孢子虫属及其他人畜共患肠道寄生虫的流行情况，通过邮件调查邀请的26家诊所中有5家报告了其24个月内的寄生虫学检查结果。一家诊所68天内收集的粪便样本采用多种技术（粪便浓缩、抗酸染色和隐孢子虫免疫测定）进行寄生虫检测。提供数据的5家诊所表明，弓首蛔虫属是最常见的检测结果。对111份粪便样本的寄生虫学研究显示，犬类（40%）和猫类（36.6%）样本的总体阳性率都很高。在犬类和猫类样本中，分别有7.4%和7.3%检测到隐孢子虫属抗原，14.2%和12.2%检测到弓首蛔虫属，7.1%和2.4%检测到贾第虫属。尼亚加拉地区人畜共患寄生虫的高流行率很重要，有必要提高对其对人类健康潜在威胁的认识。此外，有必要对隐孢子虫属和贾第虫属的人畜共患能力进行进一步研究。
