| Resumo: |
A this study aimed to evaluate the gastrointestinal parasites of goats based on the variables eggs and oocysts per gram of feces, age, season, sex and parasite load, as well as identify the most common parasites in the cities studied. Samples were collected in 2008 produced a sample of 314 animals in semi-intensive creations of three municipalities of the island of São Luís, Maranhão. We conducted parasitological examination and identification of infective larvae. The age and dry and rainy seasons had a frequency of parasitism of 46.17% (145) and 53.82% (169), respectively, the quantities of eggs and oocysts per gram of feces were higher in adult animals at station drought; adult females had a higher frequency of parasitism in both the dry season and rainy season, the animals showed parasitic load of mild and moderate, the larvae were identified from Haemonchus, Trichostrongylus, Cooperia and Oesophagostomum, Haemonchus and Cooperia were more prevalent in all the cities studied. In the cities studied, the goats are more exposed to infection of adult females during the dry season.
The objective of this study was to evaluate the gastrointestinal parasitism of goats based on the variables eggs and oocysts per gram of feces, age, sex, period of the year, parasite load of more frequent gastrointestinal parasites in goats of three municipalities of the island of São Luís in the state of Maranhão, Brazil. Sampling was carried out in 2008, with 314 goats reared in a semi-intensive regime, coproparasitological examinations and identification of infective larvae. The statistical test performed was Chi-square and Fisher's, for OPG/OoPG, age, sex, CP and period of the year. The frequency of parasitism in goats in the dry and rainy season was 46.17% (n = 149) and 53.82% (n = 169), respectively. Adult goats presented higher OPG in the dry period of the year in relation to the young, and adult females had a higher frequency of parasitism independent of the dry and rainy season. Regarding the parasitic load (CP) in OPG they were mild to moderate, no goats were observed with heavy CP. The infecting larvae identified belonged to the genus Haemonchus, Trichostrongylus, Cooperia and Oesophagostomum, with Haemonchus and Cooperia being more prevalent in all municipalities studied. In the municipalities studied, the goats most exposed to infection are female adults during the dry season.
