Abstract

This study was conducted to identify the fungi isolated from CONJUNCTIVAl sac of clinically normal PERSIAN ARAB HORSE living in Tabriz, Northwestern Iran and to determine the effect of sex and age variations on the frequency of isolates. Forty-three horses (21 females and 22 males), aged 1-15 years, without clinical evidence of external ocular inflammation were selected and divided into three age groups. Samples were taken from both CONJUNCTIVAl sacs of horses and seeded on the sabouraud dextrose agar and malt extract agar. Plates were incubated at 25oC for 10 days. Data were analyzed by Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney tests using SAS 9.1. Thirtyeight horses out of 43 (88.37 %) were positive for fungi, 22.43 (51.16 %) had positive culture from both eyes. The isolated fungal species were Candida spp (23.15 %), Penicillium spp (16.84 %), Aspergillus sp (15.78 %), Mucor spp (13.48 %), Alternaria spp (8.42 %), Pseudallescheria spp (6.31%), Chladosporium spp (5.26%), Rhodotorula spp (4.21 %), Curvularia spp (3.15%), Fusariumspp (2.10 %) and Trichoderma sp (1.05 %). There was significant effect of horse sex and age on frequency of fungal isolation. The fungal species isolated are comparable with studies performed in other countries, although the frequency of Candida isolation was so higher which may reflect a geographic difference.
