Enzymatic heterogeneity among strains of Leishmania infantum from human visceral and cutaneous leishmaniosis in Catalonia

The presence of Sarcocystis spp. was surveyed in 97 sheep in the province of Cordoba. Three methods were used for detection of the parasite in three different muscular location (heart, esophagus and diaphragmatic muscle). Sarcocystis bradyzoites were found in 85,6% of the sheep by trypsin digest. Mi...

Sumario:The presence of Sarcocystis spp. was surveyed in 97 sheep in the province of Cordoba. Three methods were used for detection of the parasite in three different muscular location (heart, esophagus and diaphragmatic muscle). Sarcocystis bradyzoites were found in 85,6% of the sheep by trypsin digest. Microscopis S. tenella in all infected animals and S. arieticanis int he diaphragmatic muscle of one sheep, and macroscopic S. gigantea in the esophagus of 6 sheep were identified. The prevalence of the infection varied with the age of the animals.
