“…Prevalence of fasciolosis in this study was 37.6% (95% CI = 31.3-44.3), slightly over two-fold the value observed by Bennema et al (2014) in Rio Grande do Sul state, who reported prevalence of 14.39% in a sample of 8,427,727 cattle between 2002 and 2011, and closer to the value found by Fruet et al (2013), who described prevalence of 25.47% in the central region of the state with a sample of 9261 animals from 2010 to 2011. The high prevalence of fasciolosis compared with those of other causes of liver condemnation demonstrates the importance and economic impact that Fasciola hepatica can have on southern Rio Grande do Sul.…”

Infection by Fasciola hepatica is an important cause of economic loss in cattle raised in Brazil and others countries. In slaughterhouses, the losses are mainly associated with condemnation of livers; however, it is believed that these losses can extend to diminished carcass yield and productivity throughout the life of the animals. Three slaughterhouses with a daily routine of approximately 15-20 cattle slaughters were monitored from July 2016 to November 2017. After sample collection, weighing, and liver assessment, statistical studies were conducted to determine disease prevalence and measurement of economic losses caused by fasciolosis through condemnation of the organ of choice of the parasite. Of the 210 livers assessed, 79 (37.6%) were condemned because of presence of F. hepatica, 87 (41.4%) were considered appropriate for human consumption, and 44 (20.9%) were considered inappropriate because of some other macroscopic lesions. The aim of this study was to estimate the prevalence of fasciolosis, correlate epidemiological and clinical-pathological aspects, and estimate the economic losses caused by the disease. It is estimated that the losses in southwestern Rio Grande do Sul state could reach R$ 36,943,532.60 (37.6%; 95% CI = 30,753,525.80 - 43,526,55.65) or US$ 11,437,626.20 (37.6%; 95% CI = 9,521,215.40 - 13,475,713.80) only because of condemnation of livers.

“…Carcasses and viscera are products resulting from the slaughter of bovine animals. Cattle slaughter by-products (viscera) add value to production, because they are of lower cost to consumers compared with other beef cuts, and serve as an alternative source of protein for the lower-income population worldwide (Kale et al 2011, Fruet et al 2013. Several pathologies can be diagnosed during slaughter, which may result in condemnation of carcasses and by-products.…”

Occurrence of hydatidosis and cysticercosis in cattle in southern Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, from 2013 to 2016

et al. 2018

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Hydatidosis and cysticercosis are parasitoses caused by the larval forms of the cestodes Equinococcus spp. and Taenia spp., which belong to the Taeniidae family. Their definitive hosts are canids and humans, respectively, with ruminants as the intermediate hosts and humans as an accidental host of both diseases. These parasites are responsible for large economic losses in slaughterhouses due to condemnation of carcasses and by-products. The present study reports the mean incidence rates of hydatidosis and cysticercosis in cattle slaughtered in the southern region of Rio Grande do Sul state, Brazil. The incidence rates observed between 2013 and 2016 were 19.96% and 0.9%, respectively, with decreased tendency of occurrence of both diseases in those years. Despite the downward tendency of the diseases, hydatidosis presented high incidence. Hydatidosis performance over the years was characterized by significant increase in the number of cases, followed by marked decrease. Cysticercosis presented a decrease in number of cases at the beginning and the end of each year. These diseases have a significant socioeconomic impact as they are responsible for large losses in the livestock industry, due to reduced productivity and carcass condemnation, and represent a risk to public health.

“…Israel et al (2014) reported that the lungs were the most doomed organs (36.10%), and then the kidneys (29.66%). Different result found Fruet et al (2013), in their researches, where the main organ condemned was the liver (40.46%), with a higher prevalence lesion due to Fasciola hepá tica.…”

“…ISSN 2166-0379 2019 The lungs and liver were the organs that generated greater economic losses (R$ 68,389.61) (Table 4). Fruet et al (2013) report a loss of R$ 87,108.05/year with organ condemnations. However, in the present study, the bovine carcasses, from which the highest value and income cuts occurred, had an economic loss of R$ 1,144,628.51, which is equivalent to 93.25% of the final loss.…”

The article identifies the main pathologies found and estimates the economic losses generated in a slaughterhouse in the Thailand municipality, Pará, during the period from March 2010 to October 2014. 55,169 animals were slaughtered, with total economic losses of R$ 1,221,035.90 and ischemia was the most frequent lesion (41.86%). The most frequent condemnation organs were lungs (48.75%), kidneys (41.66%) and liver (3.61%), which produced economic loss of R$ 76,405.65 (6.26%). Tuberculosis was the main cause of carcass condemnation, responsible for R$ 872,783.64 of economic losses. The bovine tuberculosis control can begin in production, with examinations on the farm to slaughter lines, with careful carcass inspection, as advocated by the National Program for the Control and Eradication of Animal Brucellosis and Tuberculosis (PNCEBT), which increases disease control and minimizes condemnations and economic losses at slaughter.
