Ayam petelur merupakan ayam yang khusus dipelihara untuk diambil telurnya. Kandungan protein telur yang tinggi serta harganya yang terjangkau membuat ayam jenis petelur ini banyak dibudidayakan. Namun dalam pembudidayaannya masih sering terdapat kendala, salah satunya disebabkan oleh berbagai nematoda yang menyebabkan berbagai macam infeksi. Penelitian ini telah dilaksanakan pada bulan April 2017 sampai bulan Juni 2017. Pengambilan sampel dilakukan di Peternakan mandiri, di Kelurahan Tegal Sari, Kecamatan Gading Rejo, Kabupaten Pringsewu, Provinsi Lampung dan identifikasi dilakukan di Balai Veteriner Lampung. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui jenis telur nematoda dan mengetahui nilai prevalensi parasit tersebut pada ayam.petelur. Metode pengambilan sampel yang digunakan pada penelitian ini adalah purposive sampling, yaitu mengambil sampel feses dari setiap kandang yang diduga terinfeksi nematoda sebanyak 100 sampel. Penghitugan jumlah telur parasit menggunakan uji Mc. Master. Hasil penelitian pada ayam strain ISA Brown ditemukan nematoda Ascaridia galli, Heterakis gallinarum dan Syngamus trachea. Nilai prevalensi serangan nematoda paling tinggi sebesar 43% oleh Ascaridia galli dan nilai prevalensi paling rendah sebesar 4% oleh Syngamus trachea.

Background: Free-range chickens are quite common in Brazil. In this alternative rearing system, the animals are rustic and raised in an extensive system. Free access to “bare soil” results in the increased occurrence of intestinal parasites since larvae and / or eggs of helminths and protozoa oocysts find favorable conditions for their survival and dissemination in the soil. Although the occurrence and importance of parasitic infections in free-range chickens is well known, the objective of this study is to report an outbreak of endoparasites in free-range chickens in the municipality of Barra - BA, in view of bird susceptibility associated with scarcity of studies in western Bahia.Cases: The chickens were kept free, in a bare soil yard in a household at the urban perimeter of the municipality of Barra - BA. Feeding consisted of whole corn grains, thrown directly in the soil. The drinking fountains were dirty and the animals had no history of vaccination or deworming. Symptoms Anorexia, difficulty in eating and in locomotion, presence of seromucous secretion in the oral cavity, emaciation and diarrhea were all observed symptoms. One of the birds presented excessive vocalization, drowsiness and flaccid paralysis of the neck. Necropsy was performed on 3 chickens: 2 females (cases 1 and 2) and 1 male (case 3). Macroscopic analysis revealed the presence of seromucous secretion in the upper respiratory tract of all animals. Specimens of Ascaridia galli were observed in cases 1 and 2, Heterakis gallinarum in cases 2 and 3, Raillietina sp. in cases 2 and 3 and Davainea proglottina in case 1. Microscopically, the animals had an inflammatory infiltrate in the liver and intestines. Some animals presented necrosis of the tracheal epithelial cells, as well as of the epithelial cells present at the apex of the villi. No significant results were found in the coproparasitological exam.Discussion: The diagnosis of endoparasitosis in this outbreak was based on epidemiological, clinical and pathological findings. The prevalence of intestinal parasitosis in free-range chickens is linked to factors such as age, high animal density, absence of sanitary hygienic measures, as well as environmental temperature and humidity. The appearance of injuries in the intestinal mucosa is influenced by characteristics such as parasitic load, concomitant infections, age and the host's immune status. During necropsy of the birds were found 2 helminths of the Nematoda class (Ascaridia galli and Heterakis gallinarum) and 2 of the Cestoda class (Davainea proglottina and Raillietina sp.). A. galli, seen in 2 cases, is considered low pathogenicity for adult chickens, however young birds are susceptible and can die due to intestinal obstruction and hemorrhages. H. gallinarum is responsible for causing typhlitis, with diarrhea and weight loss, this helminth was found in 2 animals in the present study, however only 1 had changes in the digestive tract. Davainea proglotina and Raillietina spp. might cause, respectively, severe hemorrhagic enteritis and nodule formation in the small intestine mucosa. In Brazil, even though it is notable that intestinal parasitism is one of the key problems in alternative poultry farming, there are few studies that evaluate the presence of endoparasites in chickens raised in alternative production systems, with animals being more frequently exposed to nematodes and cestodes. The multiparasitism observed in this study probably stems from flaws in the rearing system, mainly related to sanitary hygiene management. Therefore, the reduction in the occurrence of these helminths is closely related to the performance of basic prophylactic measures, such as offering good quality food and water in clean containers, separating lots by age, performing sanitary emptiness and deworming.Keywords: livelihood creation, nematode, cestode, multiparasitism, avian pathology.Surto de endoparasitose em galinhas caipiras (Gallus gallus domesticus) na Bahia, BrasilDescritores: criação de subsistência, nematoide, cestoide, multiparasitismo, patologia aviária.

El propósito de esta investigación fue determinar la presencia y prevalencia de blastocystosis, zoonosis causada por Blastocystis sp, en gallinas criadas libremente en domicilios de localidades del sur de Chile. Las muestras de heces frescas de aves y humanos fueron colectadas con el fijador PAF y procesadas mediante el método del PAFS combinado con una fase de flotación con solución de sulfato de zinc. En la mitad de los domicilios se detectó Blastocystis sp en las aves con una prevalencia promedio de 14.2%, siendo mayor en la zona rural y en la localidad de Teupa (p<0.05). La prevalencia en humanos fue mayor que en las gallinas de la localidad de Ñancul (p<0.05), donde el parásito estuvo presente en ambos hospederos en 4 de 7 domicilios. La prevalencia de infección por Entamoeba gallinarum y presencia de huevos de Toxocara spp fue similar entre localidades, pero las prevalencias de Eimeria spp, Capillariidae gen. spp y Heterakis gallinarum / Ascaridia galli mostraron diferencias entre localidades (p<0.05). Solo en Valdivia se registraron muestras con huevos de Trichostrongylidae gen. spp. La presencia de blastocystosis en gallinas se detecta por primera vez en Chile sugiriéndose su potencial trasmisión hacia los humanos. La presencia de huevos de Toxocara spp en las heces de las aves sugiere que estas podrían actuar como dispersores ambientales.

Une étude épidémiologique sur les helminthes du tube digestif du poulet (Gallus gallus domesticus) a été effectuée en Somalie. Cent quarante poulets de race locale et originaires de deux systèmes d’élevage différents ont été utilisés. Parmi eux, 125 provenaient d’élevages traditionnels et avaient été amenés à l’abattoir de Mogadishu et les 15 autres étaient issus d’un élevage intensif. Sur les 140 poulets examinés, 110 étaient infestés (79 p. 100) : 104 provenaient des élevages traditionnels et 6 de l’élevage intensif. Ainsi, 83 p. 100 des poulets du premier groupe et 40 p. 100 du second étaient infestés. Les résultats ont également mis en évidence une différence significative (p < 0,01) entre les deux types d’élevages concernant la prévalence des endoparasites. Les espèces parasitaires identifiées étaient les suivantes : Ascaridia galli, Subulura suctoria, Raillietina (Raillietina) tetragona, Raillietina (Raillietina) echinobothrida, Raillietina (Skrjabinia) cesticillus, Raillietina (Paroniella)  sp., Raillietina (Raillietina) sp., Raillietina sp., Cotugnia sp. et Mediorhynchus gallinarum. Aucun trématode n’a été trouvé. Les parasites ont présenté des formes d’associations diverses.

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.
