“…The economic and public health impact of such zoonosis warrants appropriate surveillance to obtain enough information that will provide inputs in the design and implementation of control strategies. A need therefore arises to regularly re-evaluate the current status of zoonotic diseases, particularly in view of new data available as a result of surveillance activities and the application of new technologies (Komba, 2017).…”

Meat-borne zoonotic parasites raised from consumption of undercooked and/or crossly contaminated meats can infect human by direct and/or indirect ways causing many mild to serious diseases; so, in the present study, some meat-borne transmissible parasites were investigated in 5239 freshly dressed sheep carcasses in local Egyptian abattoir located at Cairo Governorate along the period of 2017-2018. Results of Post-Mortem inspection revealed the detection of Fasciola, Cysticercus and Hydatid cyst in 3.47, 1.06 and 1.83% of the total examined carcasses with total economic losses of 9306.78 L. E, 2892 L.E and 4380 LE, respectively. It is worthily noted that fascioliasis recorded the highest incidence of infection, followed by hydatidosis and cysticercosis in the examined carcasses, respectively. Cysticercus ovis and C. tenuicollis were detected in 32.14% and 67.85% with total economic losses of 714 L.E and 2178 L.E because of infected heart and liver condemnation during 2017 and 2018, respectively. Furthermore, hydatid cyst was detected in 0.47% and 1.35% of the examined lung and liver samples with total economic losses of 1188 L.E and 3192 L.E because of infected lung and liver condemnation during 2017 and 2018, respectively. Referring to the obtained results, it was obvious that parasitic infection of sheep meat and offal constrains a lot of economic losses, threatens the meat production industry and throws lights over the health importance of veterinary inspection great role in protecting human-being from be infested with zoonotic meat-borne parasites. So, magnification and great support should be given to training veterinary inspectors in slaughterhouses in Egypt. Fascioliasis Cysticercosis Hydatidosis sheep carcasses parasitic infection

“…Estas pérdidas se aúnan a las otras generadas por menor producción de leche y carne (Rodríguez-Vivas et al, 2017;Molento et al 2018). A nivel mundial, el decomiso de hígados con F. hepatica es variable; en Malasia se decomisa el 73,8% de hígados (Saleha, 1991); Paraguay, 0,6% (Nuñez et al, 2017); Cuba, 18% (Brito et al, 2010); Irán, 8,53% (Khosravi & Babaahmady, 2012); 100%, en algunos lugares de Tanzania (Komba, 2017) y Europa, 5% (Beesley et al, 2108). Las pérdidas a nivel mundial por esta parasitosis se estiman en tres billones USD por año (Copeman & Copland, 2008).…”

Objetivos: Determinar las pérdidas económicas y los factores asociados con el decomiso de hígados con Fasciola hepatica en bovinos faenados en el camal de Chiclayo, Perú, durante los meses de mayo a julio del 2019. Metodología: Se evaluaron 3865 animales faenados. Mediante la inspección sanitaria post mortem se detectaron los hígados parasitados. El decomiso parcial y total de hígados y las pérdidas económicas fueron calculadas. Se utilizó la prueba de Chi cuadrado para determinar la asociación de hígados decomisados con la edad, raza, sexo, procedencia y mes de faenado. Resultados: Se decomisó un total de 880 hígados infestados por F. hepatica que representó una prevalencia de 22,77%, la pérdida económica estimada fue de S/. 27 533,80. El mes de mayor decomiso fue mayo (22,58%), La mayoría de hígados decomisados fueron de bovinos procedentes de la sierra del departamento de Cajamarca. La raza Brown Swiss presentó el mayor decomiso (40,76%) seguido del ganado cruzado (25,61%) y el criollo (23,84%). Las hembras y los animales adultos (>2 años) fueron los que mayor presentaron decomiso, 24,57% y 23,74% respectivamente. Conclusiones: La pérdida económica se estimó en S/. 31,28 por animal faenado parasitado. La edad, sexo, raza, procedencia, y mes de faenado influyeron en el decomiso de hígados.
