Oropharyngeal(owner and birds) and cloacal (birds) swabs were taken from 54 captive psittacine birds and their owners who attended to veterinary clinics in Isfahan (Totally 108 samples).To study the prevalence of C. psittaci in captive birds and their owners using molecular detection assay (PCR),samples were collected during 2014 from a total of 10 various species of parrots. C. psittaci was identified in four species of birds (40%). Sequencing was performed to confirm the PCR positive results, demonstrating that all positive samples of C. psittaci belonged to genotype A, representing the first report ...

It is believed that cattle infected by N. caninum, with acute or chronic forms, represent a higher risk of abortion than non-infected cows. The zoonosis aspects of Neosporosis is under investigation and infection with N.caninum in humanis not reported yet. We collected Ninety stool samples from mixed shelter dogs of an animal shelter and ten more stool samples from Indoor dogs with the average age of 1-3 years oldin districts of Isfahan province, Iran. The samples were selected randomly and examined by the PCR technique to analyze the extracted DNA from stool samples, and statistical analysis was performed by using SPSS software. Out of 90 mixed breeds sheltered dogs whose stools were examined by using PCR, 22 samples were positive (16 female dogs and six male dogs). The results of the PCR test were nega...
