Prevalencia de Helmintos Enteroparásitos Zoonóticos y Factores asociados en Caninos Domésticos (canis familiaris) en el Barrio Mulaló Centro

This research was made in downtown Mulalo a neighborhood which is part of “San Fernando of Mulalo” Parish belonging to Latacunga Canton in the Cotopaxi Province. The main reason was to determine the prevalence of zoonotic helminths enter parasites and factors associated with (canis familiaris) through coproparasital studies and to establish prevention measures in downtown Mulalo. Around april 2018 and February 2019 a descriptive study was done on 75 domestic canines both male and female with owners. A sample of stool was collected at random and were distributed according to their age group. The first group with 15 canines were from 0-12 months old. The second group had 45 canines from 1-5 years old, and the third group had 15 canines older than 5. Two grams of fresh stool was processed in the Parasitology Lab at the “Universidad Tecnica de Cotopaxi” using the Sheather technique of flotation. The animals whose results were positive to helminths to the coproparasital studies were defined as a case. 52% of the total number of samples were positive to parasites. In the first group of canines from 0-12 months old 9,33% were found positive, the second group of canines from 1-5 years old, 29,33% were positive, and the third group of canines older than 5, 10,66% resulted positive. The general prevalence was 74,66%, to Ancylostoma caninum 49,33%, to Toxocara canis 14,67%, to Coccidia 9,33%, to Ascaris 1,33%. With parasital association 69,22% of monoparasitism was detected, 12,82% biparasitism and 2,57% of triparasitism, finally, different types of mites 15,39% were found on the helminths prevalence per species. The results of the associated factors survey say that out of 100%, 60% of canines who go out 4 or more times a week, 49,3% have a shelter to protect themselves from the weather, 54,7% are being fed at home or are given left overs. 89,4% have drinking water and 61,3% get fresh water at least once a day, 85,3% give the canine clean fresh water and 32% clean up after their dogs daily. 37,3% do not deworm their pet a take their canine to the vet only when their pet is sick. Concluding, this research helped to get up dated information about the main types of helminths that affect canines and the relation with the associated factors that help us be alert to the zoonotic potential.
