In this study, it was aimed to reveal the frequency of fascioliasis in cattle slaughtered in the slaughterhouses of Ağrı province.
The study was carried out on 230 cattle. The presence of Fasciola hepatica eggs in stool and bile fluid samples taken from each cattle was investigated by sedimentation-zinc sulfate flotation method, and the presence of adult parasites in the liver and bile ducts by postmortem examination.
The study was conducted on 230 cattle samples. Fasciola spp. eggs were observed in 43 (18.7%) of the stools examined. As a result of the postmortem examination of the liver and gall bladder, F. hepatica adults were found in 52 (22.6%) cattle. All cattle positive in stool examination were also positive in liver and gallbladder examination. Fasciola gigantica adults were not detected in any of the cattle, and there was no statistically significant difference in terms of gender and race.
In this study conducted on cattle in the Ağrı region, F. hepatica was found to be significantly common. The data obtained show that in order to prevent economic losses in animal husbandry, which is an important source of livelihood of the local people, effective prevention and control programs should be planned and implemented, and both sheep and cattle breeders should be made aware of the prevention of this infection.
本研究旨在揭示阿克萨赖省屠宰场屠宰牛中片形吸虫病的流行频率。
本研究对 230 头牛进行了研究。采用沉淀-硫酸锌漂浮法检测每头牛粪便和胆汁样本中是否存在肝片吸虫卵，并通过剖检检测肝和胆管中是否存在成虫寄生虫。
对 230 份牛样本进行了研究。在检查的粪便中观察到 43 份（18.7%）存在片形吸虫属卵。在对肝脏和胆囊进行剖检后，发现 52 头（22.6%）牛有肝片吸虫成虫。粪便检查呈阳性的所有牛在肝脏和胆囊检查中也呈阳性。未在任何牛中检测到巨片形吸虫成虫，且在性别和种族方面无统计学差异。
在对阿克萨赖地区牛进行的这项研究中，发现肝片吸虫非常常见。获得的数据表明，为了防止畜牧业（当地居民的重要生计来源）遭受经济损失，应规划和实施有效的预防和控制计划，并使绵羊和牛饲养者意识到预防这种感染的重要性。
