Abstract

Background: Majority of parasitic infections in Rodents have zoonotic importance. This study aimed to determine the frequency and intensity of Intestinal protozoa infections of Rodents including Meriones persicus, Mus musculus and, Cricetulus migratorius. Methods: This survey was conducted in Meshkin Shahr district in northwestern Iran from Mar. to Dec. of 2014. Intestinal samples of 204 Rodents including M. persicus (n=117), M. musculus (n=63) and C. migratorius (n=24) were parasitologically examined. Formalin-ether concentration method was done for all of Rodents stool samples and observed with light microscope. All of suspected cases were stained with trichorome staining Method. Cultivation in dichromate potassium 2. 5% was carried out for all of coccidian positive samples. Acid fast and aniline blue staining methods were used for detecting of coccidian oocysts and intestinal microsporidial spores, respectively. Results: About 121(59. 3%) of the caught Rodents were generally infected with in-testinal protozoa. Entamoeba muris 14(6. 9%), Trichomonas muris 55(27. 0%), Chilomastix betencourtti 17 (8. 3%), Giardia muris 19(9. 3%), Eimeria spp. 46(22. 5%), Isospora spp. 4(2%) and Cryptosporidium spp. 1(0. 5%) were found from the collected Rodents. Mi-crosporidian spores were identified in 63 (31%) out of the 204 collected Rodents using aniline blue staining method. Conclusion: Since some of the infections are zoonotic importance thus, control of Rodents can be decreased new cases of the parasitic zoonoses in humans.
