Studies on overall prevalence of anaemia in goats with special reference to parasitic infections associated with it

SC Bhatane, SD Moregaonkar, GR Gangane and BW Narladkar

Overall prevalence of anaemia was noticed as 27.73% in goats. There was high prevalence of anaemia recorded in anaemic goats of the age group 7-12 month and it was high in winter season of the year. The prevalence of parasitism in anaemia was found (77.46%).Prominent parasitic infections detected in faecal examination were Strongyle spp. (68.81% cases) followed by Trichuis spp. (0.72%) and Eimeria spp (0.54%) individually and mixed infections (25.45%). On the basis EPG, it can be concluded that low grade parasitic infections (80%) were high than that of high grade parasitic infection (20%). Correlation of EPG with certain haematological and biochemical parameters revealed that there was significant correlation of EPG with the parameters such as serum calcium and phosphorus levels, whereas non-significant positive correlation was observed with the parameters such as TEC and MCHC. Also there was non-Significant negative correlation with the parameters Hb, PCV, MCV, serum glucose and serum Total protein in the present study.
