Rabbit coccidiosis is a kind of common parasitic disease of rabbits caused by Eimeria coccidia, a kind of apical compound protozoa that parasitizes exclusively in the digestive system of rabbits. It can cause diarrhea, wasting and even death in rabbits, and the incidence of rabbit coccidiosis is...

Coccidiosis is one of the most important protozoon diseases caused by Eimeria species. Rabbits are highly susceptible to coccidiosis, especially after weaning time. The prevalence of this disease in European countries is between 3 and 100%. Coccidiosis has been reported in both domestic (...

Coccidiosis is one of the prominent problems in the rabbit industry. Control of coccidiosis is mainly used chemical coccidiostat as drug or as substances in feed which induce resistance development and antibiotic contamination. To date, there is no commercially available vaccine to prevent rabbit ...

Coccidian infection may promote the proliferation of gut bacteria of the family Enterobacteriaceae. Bacterial infections by members of this family in rabbits can induce a negative impact on their health and lead to high mortality, especially in young individuals. This study aimed to investigate the ...

Coccidiosis is the most common disease in rabbits, causing great economic damage in rabbit farming. The aim of this work was to study the effect of coccidia on the parameters of the micronucleus test, since the authors did not come across data on the study of the mutagenic effect of Eimeria...

Eimeria (E.) stiedae is a protozoan parasite causing hepatic coccidiosis in rabbits. It mostly infects younger animals and causes nonspecific signs like stunted growth, weakness, dehydration, diarrhea and anorexia. Macroscopically, the liver has a typical appearance. It is enlarged, showing firm...

The present study was conducted to detect the therapeutic effect of Moringa oleifera and Thymus vulgaris oils on hepatic coccidiosis in experimentally infected rabbits. Also, immunomodulatory effect of the two oils was detected. Twenty-four Newzealand rabbits were used in this study and divided...

Rabbit coccidiosis is a common parasitic disease leading to economic losses in the rabbit industry. The intestinal flora plays a key role in pathogenesis of coccidiosis, and fecal metabolome mediates host-microbiome interactions as a functional readout of the gut microbiome. In this study, the E....

Livestock can sustain expected levels of productivity if the disease is controlled successfully. Rabbit coccidiosis is the major disease-causing high mortality and morbidity. Since no vaccine is available, the eradication is primarily based on careful management combined with medication in feed or...

Hepatic coccidiosis is a frequent disease in rabbits. However, limited information is available pertaining to hematology, biochemistry, and ultrasonography of the liver in naturally infected rabbits. Two young emaciated rabbits presented with diarrhea. Microscopic fecal examination identified...
