文摘

A total of 937 dogs were screened for Trypanosoma evansi infection by wet blood film, blood smear staining techniques and micro haematocrit centrifugation technique (MHCT). In the present study, 2.28?% of male dogs and 2.40?% of female dogs were found positive by MHCT method. The findings indicated that there was no effect of T. evansi infection on sex of dogs. Higher prevalence of T. evansi infection was observed in Mongrel than in Pomeranian, Cross breeds, German Shepherd, Doberman and Labrador breeds. Age wise prevalence of T. evansi infection in dogs revealed that younger ones, below the 2?years age group recorded the highest prevalence than the above the 2?years age group dogs.
