“…The finding is in line with the result of Pandya et al, (2015) who recorded microcytic and hypochromic anemia in Fasciola infected animals. However, the current result contrasts with the study conducted by Egbu et al (2013) who reported high level of MCV, MCH and MCHC in the infected group. The variation could be due to ecological and nutritional differences that greatly affect the hematological profiles.…”

Fasciolosis can cause considerable change in hematological parameters and liver driven serum enzymes. Hence, the aim of this research is to assess the hematological and biochemical changes in sheep infected with Fasciolosis in comparison with healthy controls. A total of 52 local breed (26 form naturally infected and 26 from healthy control group) matched with sex and age were enrolled in the study. Five ml blood using EDTA vacutainer tube for hematology and another 5 ml blood by serum separating tubes for serum biochemical profiles were taken and analyzed using Sysmex automated hematological analyzer and Vegasys chemistry analyzer respectively. The hematological analysis indicated there were significant mean reductions (P<0.

“…The eosinophilia observed in the present study supported by various researchers Egbu et al (2013); Pandya et al (2015) and Matanovic et al (2007) who had similar observation. The elevation of eosinophils is an indication of body defense mechanism against parasitic infection (Duffus et al, 1980).…”

“…The present findings of MCV and MCH were supported by previous studies in goats infected with parasites [ 15 ]. However, in contrast with the present study, MCV appeared to slightly increase with increase in worm load in cattle affected by fascioliasis [ 21 ]. Abdel Hameed et al .…”

Aim:The aim of the present study was to assess the effect of dietary supplementation with different levels of protein on fecal egg counts and hematological parameters in goat kids with subclinical nematodosis under semi-intensive condition.Materials and Methods:20 goat kids (3-5 months old with an average body weight of 8.90 kg) were randomly allocated to four groups: T1, served as a negative control, without receiving concentrate feed, and T2, T3, and T4 that received concentrate feed containing 16, 20, and 24% digestible crude protein, respectively. The experiment was carried out for 60 days.Results:In this study, protein supplementation had a significant (p<0.05) effect on fecal egg counts even after 15 days; hemoglobin (Hb) (g/dl) after 45 days; total leukocyte count (103/mm3) and total erythrocyte count (106/mm3) after 30 days; packed cell volume (%), lymphocyte (%), and eosinophil (%) after 15 days of supplementation, whereas monocyte (%) and neutrophil (%) values were not significantly influenced by protein supplementation effect during the entire experiment. The values of mean corpuscular volume (fl) were affected significantly (p<0.05, p<0.01) due to protein supplementation after 30 days, mean corpuscular Hb (MCH) (pg) after 45 days, but MCH concentration (g/dl) was not significantly different among the experimental groups during the entire experiment.Conclusion:The dietary supplementation with different levels of protein significantly improved the hematological profiles and inhibited the nematodosis infection in the experimental goat kids.

“…These results were consistent with those obtained in sheep 22 and bovine. 2 The changes in the differential counts may be a means of body defense against Fasciola, obstructive effects or due to the toxin mediated lesion of the bone marrow. 26 The neutrophilia and eosinophilia were also observed to be proportional to worm load.…”
