Survey of Gastrointestinal Parasites of Farmed Pigs in Ghana

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 5, September 2026.
Survey of Gastrointestinal Parasites of Farmed Pigs in Ghana Gastrointestinal parasites were common in pigs sampled from Kpone Katamanso Municipality, Ghana, with an overall prevalence of 67.6%. Complementary formol–ether concentration, modified McMaster, and modified Ziehl–Neelsen techniques improved parasite detection, while polymerase chain reaction

The effect of an interferon inducer onEimeria maximain the chicken

Parasitology, 1971
The intraperitoneal inoculation of chickens with 100–170 mg of Statolon, an artificial interferon inducer in mammals, induced the production of a virus interference factor in the serum. Chickens, 3 and 5 weeks old given 40–170 mg Statolon i.p. produced significantly fewer oocysts after infection withE.

The Effect of Multi‐Strain Probiotics, Zinc and Copper on the Performance of Broiler Chickens Challenged With Clostridium perfringens

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 5, September 2026.
Our study showed that challenging broiler chickens with Clostridium perfringens reduced performance and increased mortality. Conversely, supplementing the diet with additives, such as chelated zinc, chelated copper and probiotics, helped mitigate the negative effects of C. perfringens.

EmaxDB: Availability of a first draft genome sequence for the apicomplexan Eimeria maxima

, 2012
Apicomplexan parasites are serious pathogens of animals and man that cause diseases including coccidiosis, malaria and toxoplasmosis. The importance of these parasites has prompted the establishment of genomic resources in support of developing effective

Eimeria oocysts in auxiliary feed trays represent a potential source of infection to young broiler chicks

Journal of Applied Poultry Research
Summary: Outbreaks of avian coccidiosis arise after newly-placed chicks ingest high numbers of Eimeria oocysts present in litter. Preventing coccidiosis depends on reducing the number of Eimeria oocysts ingested to a level that either induces or boosts ...

Immunity to Eimeria brunetti and Eimeria maxima infections in the fowl

Parasitology, 1967
Fowls were completely resistant to a third inoculation with E. maxima oocysts given after two graded and spaced infections. Resistance was complete to a fourth inoculation of E. brunetti oocysts after a series of three infections.Birds made resistant to E. maxima and then inoculated with E.

A Review on Heat Stress in Broiler Chickens: Mechanisms, Effects and Mitigation Strategies

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 5, September 2026.
Heat stress caused by high temperature and humidity compromises broiler health, welfare, and productivity by reducing feed intake, growth performance, and feed efficiency, while increasing mortality, oxidative stress, metabolic disturbances, intestinal dysfunction, gut dysbiosis, immune suppression, and meat quality deterioration.

The fine structure of the developing macrogamete of Eimeria maxima

Parasitology, 1979
SUMMARYThe fine structure of the developing macrogamete of Eimeria maxima was studied from chicks killed at intervals from 138 to 147 h after inoculation. The macrogamete developed within a parasitophorous vacuole. Lying within this vacuole and extending for some distance around the periphery of the macrogamete were intravacuolar tubules, grouped in ...

Poultry Coccidiosis in and Around Arba Minch, Southern Ethiopia: A Study Based on Coprological and Postmortem Findings

Immunity, Inflammation and Disease, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Ethiopia has a large chicken population, but its economic contribution is limited by disease challenges, especially coccidiosis. Despite coccidiosis's economic and health impacts, there is a notable gap in detailed knowledge regarding the predominant Eimeria species, associated intestinal lesions, and distribution ...
