“…Neospora caninum is a parasite of livestock and companion animals and is an important cause of bovine abortion in dairy cattle worldwide (Dubey, 1999). It is transmitted transplacentally, by the ingestion of infected tissues and by the ingestion of food and water contaminated with oocysts excreted in the feces of dogs.…”

“…Furthermore, N. caninum oocysts resemble morphologically the oocysts of a related coccidian, Hammondia heydorni, and there is no simple method to distinguish them. Little is known about the life cycle of H. heydorni or whether additional Hammondia species occur that use dogs as their definitive host (Dubey et al, 2002;Schares et al, 2002;S lapeta, Modry et al, 2002).…”

“…Until recently, the only genetic locus characterized for H. heydorni was the 18S ribosomal DNA (Dubey et al, 2002). More genetic data are needed to determine how distinct H. heydorni and related species are from N. caninum and to differentiate among them.…”

“…Neospora, duas espécies são conhecidas, Neospora caninum e Neospora hughesi (Dubey et al, 2002), sendo que a infecção por N. caninum tem sido associada a problemas reprodutivos e à doença neonatal, e a infecção por N. hughesi a distúrbios neurológicos (Veronesi et al, 2008).…”

RESUMOA neosporose tem grande importância em bovinos, e sua patogênese neste hospedeiro, em termos gerais, está esclarecida, porém, em equídeos é pobremente conhecida. Na Colômbia ainda não foram reportados anticorpos Anti-Neospora spp. em equídeos, sendo assim objetivou-se no presente estudo avaliar a ocorrência do parasito em jumentos (Equus asinus) de fazendas que apresentavam risco da doença nestes animais. Foram utilizados 56 animais no estado de Sucre (Colômbia), escolhidos aleatoriamente dentro das fazendas selecionadas. Utilizou-se um peptídeo recombinante originado de Neospora caninum (NcGRA1) para o diagnóstico por Dot-ELISA, e o soro foi diluído em 1:200. Este estudo reporta, pela primeira vez no estado de Sucre e na Colômbia, a presença de anticorpos anti-Neospora spp. na espécie Equus asinus, com uma ocorrência de 19,7% (11/56) dos animais amostrados.Palavras-chave: jumento (Equus asinus), ocorrência, Neospora spp., parasito ABSTRACT The neosporosis has great importance in cattle, and its pathogenesis in this host has been generally clarified, however, in horses, neosporosis is poorly known, and in Colombia anti
