Article Synopsis
- Cryptosporidium spp. is a zoonotic parasite causing diarrhea in humans and animals, posing risks of severe dehydration and death, particularly in sheep in Pakistan.
- A study analyzed 360 fecal samples for Cryptosporidium by using both modified Ziehl-Neelsen staining and PCR, finding higher infection rates in younger sheep and male animals.
- The results revealed a 27.08% prevalence via PCR versus 18.80% through microscopy, highlighting PCR as a more reliable diagnostic method for detecting this parasite.
An experimental study was carried out to compare physiological effects (serum glucose level) of medetomidine in Red Sindhi cattle calves at three different doses i.e. 8, 10 and 12µg/kg body weight intravenously.
