Uncommon co-infection due to Moniezia expansa and Moniezia benedeni in young goats from Romania: morphological and histopathological analysis

Annals of parasitology, 2020

Digestive parasitoses negatively affect the goat's health, the gain weight of the kids, the efficiency of food conversion, fertility, and productivity, causing important economic losses. This investigation was carried out on a group of goats, Carpathian breed, in the hill area of Tg. Frumos-Iași, to specify the etiology of the acute digestive syndrome, triggered towards the end of the pasturing season, in the young goats. In this context, four sick animals, aged 6-8 months, were slaughtered. Morphological, pathological, and parasitological examination of dissected animals was conducted. Multiple tapeworms belonging to Moniezia expansa and Moniezia benedeni species were found. From the duodenum, jejunum, ileum, fragments were taken for the histopathological processing. The identification of the tapeworm species was carried out through morphological differentiation. The prevalence of tapeworm infection in the examined animals was 100% of which M. expansa was 56.10% and M. benedeni...

Studies on monieziasis of sheep I. Prevalence and antihelminthic effects of some plant extracts, a light and electron microscopic study

Parasitology Research, 2011

Out of 2,343 examined sheep throughout the whole year, 271 were found to be infected with tapeworms (11.5%). The highest infection rate (22.1%) was recorded in autumn, while the lowest (6%) occurred in summer. Six species of cestodes were identified according to their prevalence: Moniezia expansa (74%), Moniezia denticulata (8.5%), Moniezia benedeni (4.8%), Moniezia trigonophora (2.7%), and Thysaniezia giardi (2.7%), T. giardi was recorded in Egypt for the first time. M. expansa was found throughout the year with two peaks in January (92.3%) and June (88.5%). SEM examination revealed that M. expansa scolex has four triangular suckers guarded by an X-shaped fibrous band that makes them open permanently. Also, there is a Y-shaped apical part at the scolex center which may be an embryonically non-developed rostellum. The whole worm body surface is covered with unidirectional microtriches. TEM showed that the tegument is underlaid by a thick fibrous interstitial layer below which an outer circular and an inner longitudinal muscular layer are arranged. Beneath these structures the subtegumental cells are found which have spherical electron-dense inclusions and various other cell organelles. Moreover, M. expansa has interproglottidal glands which contain secretory vesicles and secretions. For biological control of this parasite, different concentrations of crude plant extract of Artemisia cina were used in vitro and in vivo. In vitro, the results indicated that the plant extract is efficacious at all concentrations tested. Electron microscopic examination showed that many structures of the treated worms were affected. The most affected sites were the scolex and the microtriches of the outer tegumental surface. In vivo, treatment of heavily infected animals showed an antihelminthic effect, since the complete absence of eggs was recorded 9 days after treatment when fecal investigations were done.
