Determinación coprológico de la parasitofauna en cerdos del recinto sabanetillas cantón Echeandía provincia Bolívar

In the present investigation it was tried to determine coprologically the parasitofauna in pigs of the Sabanetillas enclosure, reason why we proposed; establish the genera of gastrointestinal parasites in the pigs in the area; check the parasite load of these; to finally identify the parasites with zoonotic potential and the risk factors that imply parasitosis in pigs. For this research, a descriptive qualitative statistical model was used, with a total of 200 samples that were subjected to flotation and sedimentation methods. We were able to determine the presence of protozoa in stool tests performed, 43% of samples were positive, while 57% were negative for gastrointestinal parasites; cestodes and nematodes did not have an appearance in the present investigation. 57% of the samples did not present a parasite load (-), 37.5% presented a mild parasitosis (+), in turn 10% presented a moderate parasitosis (++) and finally, 0.5 % presented a severe parasitosis (+++). Two parasitic specimens corresponding to the protozoan phylum were identified, which are characterized by their zoonotic character, such as Giardia spp. And coccidia of the genus Eimeria spp. We determined that age, weight and type of diet were predisposing factors for gastrointestinal parasitosis, since young animals with low body weight and a diet with wastes carry a greater probability of contracting a parasitosis.
