The current study was conducted to investigate the incidence of parasitic diseases in bovines which were sick and brought at veterinary hospital for treatment. A total of 366 samples were investigated from cattle (n = 175) and buffaloes (n = 191) presented at Teaching Veterinary Clinical Complex (TVCC), Veterinary College, Junagadh, Gujarat during January to December 2014. Examination of Giemsa-stained peripheral blood smears exhibited that 58.6 % of cattle and 41.2 % of buffaloes were infected with haemoparasites comprising , , and @ of 54.0, 3.4 and 1.1 in cattle and 38.8, 1.2 and 1.2 percent in buffaloes, respectively. The incidence of total haemoparasites and infections was significantly higher (p < 0.05) in cattle whereas, incidence of haemoparasites were recorded significantly higher in the month of July to November (i.e., rainy and autumn) in both cattle and buffaloes, respectively (p < 0.01 and p < 0.001). Coprological examination revealed that the overall incidence of gastrointestinal (GI) parasitic infection was 45.5 % in cattle and 43.4 % in buffaloes. The incidence of individual parasite was 11.4, 1.1, 2.3, 4.5, 1.1, 3.4, 2.3 and 19.3 in cattle and 4.7, 0.9, 0.0, 2.8, 0.9, 5.7, 0.0 and 28.3 % in buffaloes for spp., spp., , Strongyle, spp., amphistomes, and , respectively which differ insignificantly (p > 0.05). Seasonal prevalence of GI parasites was highest in summer in both cattle and buffaloes, the data being statistically non-significant (p > 0.05). However, the incidence of in both cattle (19.3 %) and buffaloes (28.3 %) was higher in comparisons to other GI parasites. The present investigation emphasized that and are the most important parasites of bovines of this region.
本研究旨在调查送至兽医医院治疗的患病牛的寄生虫病发病率。2014年1月至12月期间，共对朱纳加德兽医学院教学兽医临床综合大楼（TVCC）收治的牛（n = 175）和水牛（n = 191）的366份样本进行了调查。吉姆萨染色外周血涂片检查显示，58.6%的牛和41.2%的水牛感染了血液寄生虫，其中牛感染 、 和 的比例分别为54.0%、3.4%和1.1%，水牛感染的比例分别为38.8%、1.2%和1.2%。牛的血液寄生虫总感染率和 感染率显著更高（p < 0.05），而牛和水牛在7月至11月（即雨季和秋季）的血液寄生虫感染率分别显著更高（p < 0.01和p < 0.001）。粪便学检查显示，牛胃肠道（GI）寄生虫感染的总体发生率为45.5%，水牛为43.4%。牛感染 属、 属、 、圆线虫、 属、双口吸虫、 及 的个体发生率分别为11.4%、1.1%、2.3%、4.5%、1.1%、3.4%、2.3%和19.3%，水牛分别为4.7%、0.9%、0.0%、2.8%、0.9%、5.7%、0.0%和28.3%，差异不显著（p > 0.05）。牛和水牛胃肠道寄生虫的季节性流行率在夏季最高，数据无统计学意义（p > 0.05）。然而，牛（19.3%）和水牛（28.3%）感染 的发生率高于其他胃肠道寄生虫。本调查强调， 和 是该地区牛最重要的寄生虫。
