Abstract EN
The current study was performed from the period of August 2016 to January 2017 in Kirkuk city to clear up the taking place of iron deficiency with different clinical appearance of ovine fascioliasis.
Eighty ewes were distributed to two groups; patient group including 40 ewes that were had clinical signs of fasioliasis and 40 healthy ewes were typified as control group, based on clinical symptoms the patient ewes were portioned out to subacute and chronic groups that comprised of 20 and 20 continuously.
Fecal samples of ewes were tested in order to differentiation the Fasciola hepatica infected away from non-infected, venous blood samples were collected from the ewes for particularization and comparison of iron levels in serum samples of the groups.
Results of present study showed occurrence of significant decrease (P ≤ 0.05) in iron level in the blood serum of infected ewes compared with perfect control group, whereas the existence of significant divergence was not observed (P ≥ 0.05) in iron level in subacute and chronic infected ewes group.
It was drawn a conclusion that ovine fascioliasis conduces to iron deficiency irrespective of its clinical forms.
It is necessary to provide the infected sheep with iron preparations to facilitate their cure from fasscioliasis].
