背景寄生虫是圈养非人类灵长类动物（NHP）腹泻的病原体。为了扩大有关巴西圈养动物中这些病原体的信息，在里约热内卢州培育中心对圈养 NHP 的胃肠道寄生虫进行了研究。方法从灵长类动物中收集粪便样本，其中 960 个来自研究中心 (Cecal/Fiocruz)，115 个来自灵长类中心 (CPRJ/Inea)。该研究涉及新世界 (NW) 灵长类动物和旧世界 (OW) 物种。结果估计患病率为 56.7%，其中 91.3% 为原生动物，7.4% 为蠕虫。饲养中心之间的统计差异出现在寄生虫病的总体值以及Balantidium coli和Entamoeba sp.的分离频率上，特别是在生活在盲肠的OW灵长类动物样本中。结论这些结果表明需要在圈养灵长类动物饲养场所实施卫生计划。
BackgroundParasites are agents of diarrhea in captive non-human primates (NHP). To broaden information about those etiological agents in captive animals in Brazil, gastrointestinal parasites in captive NHP were researched in nurturing Centers of Rio de Janeiro State.MethodsFecal samples were collected from primates, of which 960 came from the Research Center (Cecal/Fiocruz) and 115 from the Primate Center (CPRJ/Inea). The study involved species of the New World (NW) primates and of the Old World (OW).ResultsThe estimated prevalence was 56.7%, of which 91.3% presented protozoans and 7.4% presented helminths. Statistical difference between the nurturing centers occurred in the overall value of parasitosis and in the isolated frequency of Balantidium coli and Entamoeba sp., especially in the samples of OW primates living in Cecal.ConclusionsThese results demonstrated the need for implements of sanitation programs in the sites for captive primates nurturing.
