Abstract

CRYPTOSPORIDIUM is an important cause of illness in farm animals. The present study conducted in KERMAN, Iran between 2003-2004 to elucidate the EPIDEMIOLOGY of CRYPTOSPORIDIUM infection in SHEEP and GOATs. Fecal samples were collected fresh and transferred to the research lab. CRYPTOSPORIDIUM oocysts were concentrated using formalin-ether sedimentation method followed by the modified Ziehl-Neelsen staining. The data analyzed using non-parametric tests and logistic regression. Of 774 animals, 434 SHEEP and 340 GOATs, 120 animals (15.5%) were infected. The infection rate in SHEEP and GOATs was 13.8% and 17.6% respectively. Age, season (spring and winter), fecal consistency, presence of other animal species and the herd size significantly correlated with the probability of CRYPTOSPORIDIUM infection. The study showed a remarkable rate of CRYPTOSPORIDIUM infection in SHEEP and GOATs. Regarding the RISK FACTORs of the infection improving animal husbandry is a prerequisite for effective control of the disease in livestock.
