| Abstract | ||
| This study was designed to diagnose the Buxtonella sulcata, which is closely related to Balantidium coli, is a ciliated protozoan that inhabits the digestive system of cattle (cows and buffaloes). Two hundred thirty-three feces' samples were collected randomly from cattle in Al-Diwaniya province/ Iraq. Using the formalin-ether precipitation and sheather's flotation techniques, then microscopically examination was done to detect the protozoan cysts or trophozoites. Prevalence rate and effect of certain risk factors were studied. The parasite's cystic phase had circular or semicircular shape with a diameter of 115-55 μm, were detected in 10.30% (24/233) of the examined cattle in the study area. The infection rate was unaffected statistically (p>0.05) by any of studied risk factors including cattle species (0.637%), age (0.893%), sex (0.734%) and climate changes (0.622%) during the study months. Through the current study, it appears that Buxtonella silicata is a protozoan endemic to cattle in the study area and has the possibility of coexistence with different biological and environmental conditions. | ||
