Microscopic and molecular detection of piroplasms among sheep in Upper Egypt.

Introduction: Blood parasites pose a significant threat to livestock production in southern Egypt, yet there is a scarcity of information regarding their circulation and epidemiology in sheep in this region. This study aimed to investigate the seroprevalence of blood parasite infections in sheep in Assiut governorate, Upper Egypt.

Methods: A total of 400 blood samples were collected from sheep of varying ages and genders.

Molecular identification of in sheep from Upper Egypt.

Introduction: spp. are considered the most important strongylid nematodes with a worldwide distribution. The parasite's blood-sucking nature can lead to severe anemia in infected animals.
