Une étude a été menée sur le parasitisme digestif des poules villageoises collectées dans deux marchés de la ville de Ngaoundéré (Cameroun) entre mai et août 2018. Neuf genres (Eimeria sp., Raillietina sp., Capillaria sp., Choanotaenia sp., Gongylonema sp., Amoebotaenia sp., Hymenolepis sp., Tetrameres sp. et Echinostoma sp.) et trois espèces (Ascaridia galli, Heterakis gallinarum et Trichostrongylus tenuis) ont été identifiés. Sur les 429 échantillons examinés, 362 étaient porteurs d’un ou de plusieurs parasites, soit un taux d’infestation de 84,4 %. Ce taux était de 86,3 % chez les 240 oiseaux examinés par coproscopie, et de 82,0 % chez les 189 examinés par autopsie. A la coproscopie, les oiseaux adultes étaient plus infestés que les jeunes par Ascaridia galli, Raillietina sp. et Eimeria sp. De même, à l’autopsie une plus forte prévalence de Capillaria sp. et Raillietina sp. a été observée chez les adultes. La plupart des helminthes parasitaient l’intestin grêle. Aucune lésion coccidienne n’a été observée le long du tractus intestinal. Diverses associations de parasites ont été observées avec celle prédominante de Eimeria sp. L’intensité moyenne d’infestation par Eimeria sp., estimée par la méthode de détermination du nombre d’oeufs par gramme de fèces de McMaster, a été la plus élevée chez les volailles adultes.

The prevalence of gastrointestinal helminth infections and the gross pathological lesions produced by them were studied from February 2012 to January 2013 in the Department of Pharmacology of Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh. In this study, a total of 320 indigenous chickens aged ranging from 2 to 4 months were examined to identify the different types of gastrointestinal helminth infections in indigenous chickens. During routine examination, six species of helminth parasites were recorded, of which five species of nematodes such as Ascaridia galli, Heterakis gallinarum, Capillaria spp, Acuaria hamulosa and Dispharynx spiralis; and one species was cestode called Raillietina tetragona. The highest prevalence was observed for Ascaridia galli (41.56%) followed in descending order by Raillietina tetragona (19.68%), Heterakis gallinarum (15.62%), Acuaria hamulosa (8.75%), Capillaria spp. (4.68% ) and Disopharinx spiralis (1.56%). The gross pathological lesions were observed in case of Acuaria hamulosa and Heterakis gallinarum infection. In case of Acuaria hamulosa infection keratinization of gizzard mucosa and cross section of adult Acuaria hamulosa were seen along with marked infiltration of neutrophils. The results of this study suggest that both nematodes and cestodes are highly prevalent in indigenous chickens in the studied area.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/bjvm.v12i2.21275 Bangl. J. Vet. Med.

Measured dosages of larvated eggs of the caecal nematode, Heterakis gallinarum and the small intestinal nematode, Ascaridia galli were fed to domestic chickens, in order to study the distribution of the numbers of worms developing and the influence on the worms and the chicks of the treatments in the experiments. These treatments are summarised in Table 1, p. 110.Chronic respiratory disease, accidentally acquired by the groups of chicks in varying degrees appeared to have no influence on the course of the worm infections and the ensuing blackhead (Table 2, p. 112).Following ingestion of eggs of Heterakis, blackhead occurred in three of four groups of chicks, apparently in varying degrees, possibly related to the size of the egg dosage and to differences in susceptibility to Heterakis (Table 1, p. 110). The chicks inthe group which did not contract blackhead were considerably older than those of the other groups.

The effects of managerial systems on the occurrence of gastrointestinal helminths in Free-Range Chickens (FRCs) from northern Paraná, Brazil were investigated. The most predominant (23.3%; 61/262) cestode observed was Raillietina cesticillus; Heterakis gallinarum (71.4%; 187/262) and Ascaridia galli (45%; 118/262) were the predominant nematodes; Postharmostomum commutatum was the only trematode observed in 2.7% (7/262) of FRCs. The most elevated parasitic burdens were associated with Heterakis gallinarum, Ascaridia galli, and Raillietina cesticillus. Significant (p ? 0.05) associations were observed when the effects of the types of bedding, soil type, and fence restriction of FRCs were considered relative to the possibility of helminthiasis. The type of bedding, the length of the sanitary break, and the presence of shading significantly (p ? 0.05) influenced the possibility of FRCs being infected by H. gallinarum. Most parameters evaluated were significantly associated with infection of FRCs by A. galli. These findings suggest that FRCs from northern Paraná are infected by a wide-range of gastrointestinal helminths, but more frequently by R. cesticillus, H. gallinarum, and A. galli. Moreover, the type of floor bedding, the soil type, and the usage of fences in the management of FRCs is directly related to gastrointestinal helminthiasis.

На території України одними з найпоширеніших шлунково-кишкових інвазій у курей вважаються представники найпростіших організмів Eimeria spp. (Schneider, 1875) та нематоди Ascaridia galli (Schrank, 1788), Heterakis gallinarum (Schrank, 1788), Trichostrongуlus tenuis (Mehlis, 1846), а також гельмінти роду Capillaria (Zeder, 1800). Збудники названих паразитарних захворювань локалізуються у шлунково-кишковому каналі та завдають шкоди організму господаря. Зазначені види паразитів перешкоджають розвитку птахівництва в Україні, оскільки завдають значних економічних збитків птахівничим господарствам незалежно від форми власності. Наслідком захворювання птиці є відс-тавання в рості і розвитку, зниження її продуктивності, зростання витрат на корми на одиницю продукції, а подекуди реєструють і летальні випадки. Гельмінтози та еймеріози домінують серед ендопаразитозів сільськогосподарської птиці і спричиняють тяжкі захворювання, особливо у молод-няку. Отож, метою проведеного дослідження було встановити поширення шлунково-кишкових паразитів у курей на території Полтавського району Полтавської області, Богодухівського району Харківської області та Охтирського району Сумської області. У роботі наведено результати паразитологічного обстеження поголів’я курей щодо шлунково-кишкових паразитозів. Проби посліду (не менше 25 з кожної групи) відбирали із пташників, де утримувалася птиця різних вікових груп. Лабораторні дослідження проведені в науковій лабораторії кафедри паразитології Полтавського державного аграрного університету. Діагностику проводили модифікованим методом МакМастера (McM) з чутливістю 50 яєць у грамі посліду. Для цього ми брали 2 г посліду і 28 мл насиченого розчину кухонної солі, питома вага якого становила 1,20. За результатами проведених досліджень з’ясовано значне поширення паразитарних захворювань курей, збудниками яких виявилися Eimeria spp. (Schneider, 1875) і шлунково-кишкові нематоди: Ascaridia galli (Schrank, 1788), Heterakis gallinarum (Schrank, 1788), Trichostrongуlus tenuis (Mehlis, 1846) та гельмінтів роду Capillaria (Zeder, 1800). Встановлено, що асоціативні інвазії у птиці переважають над моноінвазіями. Зареєстровано, що найвищі показники ЕІ у курей спостерігаються у разі паразитування аскаридій (38,6 %) та гетеракисів (29,6 %), водночас найнижчі – у разі паразитування еймерій (13,6 %) та трихострон-гілюсів (14,3 %). Отримані дані мають як наукову, так і практичну цінність, оскільки доповнюють уже наявні дані щодо видового різноманіття збудників паразитарних захворювань курей та особливостей їхнього поширення на території різних регіонів нашої держави.

The efficacy of capsulized Croton tiglium L. (CCT) seeds on the gastrointestinal parasites of native chickens (Gallus domesticus) was tested in experiments. A total of thirty-six free-range native chickens naturally infected with gastrointestinal parasites were divided into four treatment groups (positive control of levamisole+niclosamide, 200 mg, 300 mg and 400 mg CCT seeds) following a completely randomized design (CRD). Prior to treatment and on the 3rd, 6th, 9th and 12th days after treatment, the fecal egg count per gram was measured using the mc master technique. The analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to statistically analyze all the data obtained. Using Least Significant Differences (LSD), significant differences between treatments were compared. On the day twelve after treatment, percent efficacy of capsulized Croton tiglium seeds on Ascaridia galli/Heterakis gallinarum at 200 mg and 400 mg was highly effective. The comparative cost analysis of the four treatments showed that the use of C. tiglium seeds resulted in a lower cost compared to the commercial dewormer. Commercial anthelmintic was more costly compared to the cost of capsulized C. tiglium seeds on T4 (400mg CCT) by 89. 67 %. The findings indicate the ability of Croton tiglium seeds in native chickens (Gallus domesticus) particularly against Ascaridia galli/Heterakis gallinarum as an alternative anthelmintic.

Abstract Background Histomonosis is a severe re-emerging disease of poultry caused by Histomonas meleagridis, a protozoan parasite which survives in the environment via the cecal worm Heterakis gallinarum. Following infection, the parasites reside in the ceca and are excreted via host feces. In the present work, male birds of conventional broiler (Ross 308, R), layer (Lohmann Brown Plus, LB) and a dual-purpose (Lohmann Dual, LD) chicken line were infected with 250 embryonated eggs of Ascaridia galli and Heterakis gallinarum, respectively, with the latter nematode harboring Histomonas meleagridis, to investigate a co-infection of nematodes with the protozoan parasite in different host lines. Methods In weekly intervals, from 2 to 9 weeks post infection (wpi), individual fecal samples (n = 234) from the chickens were collected to quantify the excretion of H. meleagridis by real-time PCR and to determine the number of nematode eggs per gram (EPG) in order to elucidate excretion dynamics of the flagellate and the nematodes. This was further investigated by indirect detection using plasma samples of the birds to detect antibodies specific for H. meleagridis and worms by ELISA. The infection with H. meleagridis was confirmed by histopathology and immunohistochemistry to detect the flagellate in the cecum of representing birds. Results The excretion of H. meleagridis could already be observed from the 2nd wpi in some birds and increased to 100% in the last week of the experiment in all groups independent of the genetic line. This increase could be confirmed by ELISA, even though the number of excreted H. meleagridis per bird was generally low. Overall, histomonads were detected in 60% to 78% of birds with temporary differences between the different genetic lines, which also showed variations in the EPG and worm burden of both nematodes. Conclusions The infection with H. gallinarum eggs contaminated with H. meleagridis led to a permanent excretion of the flagellate in host feces. Differences in the excretion of H. meleagridis in the feces of genetically different host lines occurred intermittently. The excretion of the protozoan or its vector H. gallinarum was mostly exclusive, showing a negative interaction between the two parasites in the same host. Graphic abstract
