Abstract: Cats are carriers of zoonotic agents to humans, including intestinal parasites. The purpose of this study was to analyze the accuracy of different laboratory methods for the diagnosis of intestinal parasites. Fecal samples were processed by the Willis, Sheather, Faust and Hoffman-Janer-Pons-Lutz (HJPL) methods. Accuracy analysis was performed determining the sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive value and Kappa. A total of 149 fecal samples were collected, 65 from stray cats and 84 from do… Show more

“…The prevalence rates of T. gondii infection in cats in most of Asia are generally lower than the world average, such as 19.6% in Kuwait (Abdou et al 2013), 30.4% in Iraq (Switzer et al 2013), 24.5% in China (Ding et al 2017;Li et al 2022), 2.2 to 47.2% in Korea (Hong et al 2013;Jung et al 2017), 4.8 to 11% in Bangkok (Jittapalapong et al 2010Sukhumavasi et al 2012), 40% in Iran (Sharif et al 2009), 14.5% in Malaysia (Wana et al 2020), 9 to 26.7% in Japan (Matsuu et al 2017;Kyan et al 2021) and18.7% in Thailand (Huertas-López et al 2021). For countries in Americas, the prevalence rates were 8 to 84.4% in Brazil (Cavalcante et al 2006;Bastos et al 2014;Magalhães et al 2017;Lima et al 2018), and 6 to 66.7% in the United States (Lilly et al 2013;Ballash et al 2015;Scorza and Lappin 2017). As the soul mate of humans, cats are inextricably linked to people's daily lives.…”

“…The domestic cat (Felis catus) is able to shed about 10 million oocysts in a single defecation, thus representing an important source of environmental contamination and consequently one of the main routes of transmission of toxoplasmosis (Dubey & Beattie, 1988;Lindsay et al, 2002;Mancianti et al, 2010). Hence, the presence of stray cats may be a factor that contributes to the high urban prevalence of this parasite (Lima et al, 2018).…”
