A study was undertaken to determine gastrointestinal (GI) parasites commonly found in Malaysia's non-human primates (NHP) living in three different types of populations (wild, urban, and captive) and the basis of major GI parasites of zoonotic importance.
A total of 308 samples was collected and microscopically screened from the NHP in the wild (n = 163), urban (n = 76), and captive (n = 69) populations. The samples were taken from 12 species of local NHPs.
At least, 44 species of GI parasites comprising of protozoans (seven species), nematodes (26 species), cestodes (five species), trematodes (five species), and pentastomida (one species) were detected. There were no significant differences for the overall prevalence and no great differences in GI parasite species among the wild, urban, and captive NHP populations.
The most common GI parasite was Ascaris spp. (49.7%), followed by Oesophagostomum spp. (26.9%), and 31 species discovered in this study are of known public health importance.
开展了一项研究，以确定马来西亚生活在三种不同类型种群（野生、城市和圈养）中的非人灵长类动物（NHP）中常见的胃肠道（GI）寄生虫，以及具有人畜共患病重要性的主要GI寄生虫的情况。
总共从野生（n = 163）、城市（n = 76）和圈养（n = 69）种群的NHP中收集了308份样本，并进行显微镜筛查。样本取自12种当地的NHP。
至少检测到44种GI寄生虫，包括原生动物（7种）、线虫（26种）、绦虫（5种）、吸虫（5种）和舌形虫（1种）。野生、城市和圈养的NHP种群在总体患病率上没有显著差异，GI寄生虫种类也没有很大差异。
最常见的GI寄生虫是蛔虫属（49.7%），其次是结节虫属（26.9%），本研究中发现的31种寄生虫具有已知的公共卫生重要性。
