Resumo: The investigation of gastrointestinal parasites in primates kept in captivity is important for the management of these animals and for human health, since many of their parasites cause zoonoses. The aim of this study was to evaluate gastrointestinal parasitism in primates kept in captivity at a Wildlife Animal Screening Center in Bahia, Brazil. 135 stool samples from 45 primates were analyzed using the Direct method and the Hoffman method, three times, with an interval of fifteen days. Infections by protozoa were verified, being mild for Balantidium sp. and Entamoeba sp. and moderate for Cystoisospora sp., the latter had the highest sample prevalence among all the parasites found (91.11%). The presence of helminths of Ancylostoma sp. and Strongyloides sp. was recorded. Infection by gastrointestinal parasites in captive primates is frequent. With the results of the present work, it is concluded that periodic parasitological evaluations are necessary for better sanitary management of these animals.

El objetivo de este estudio fue evaluar el parasitismo gastrointestinal en primates mantenidos en cautiverio en un Centro de Detección de Animales Silvestres en Bahía, Brasil. Se analizaron 135 muestras de heces de 45 primates utilizando el método Directo y el método Hoffman, tres veces, con un intervalo de quince días. Se verificaron infecciones por protozoos, siendo leves para Balantidium sp. y Entamoeba sp. y moderadas para Cystoisospora sp., este último tuvo la mayor prevalencia de muestra entre todos los parásitos encontrados (91,11%). Se registró la presencia de helmintos de Ancylostoma sp. y Strongyloides sp. La infección por parásitos gastrointestinales en primates en cautiverio es frecuente. Con los resultados del presente trabajo se concluye que son necesarias evaluaciones parasitológicas periódicas para un mejor manejo sanitario de estos animales.A investigação por parasitos gastrintestinais em primatas mantidos em cativeiro é importante para o manejo desses animais e para a saúde humana, pois muitos dos seus parasitos são causadores de zoonoses. O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar o parasitismo gastrintestinal em primatas mantidos em cativeiro em um Centro de Triagem de Animais Silvestres da Bahia, Brasil. Foram analisadas, pelo método Direto e pelo método de Hoffman, 135 amostras de fezes de 45 primatas, três vezes, com intervalo de quinze dias. Foram verificadas infecções por protozoários sendo de grau leve para Balantidium sp. e Entamoeba sp. e moderada para Cystoisospora sp., este último teve maior prevalência amostral entre todos os parasitos encontrados (91,11%). Foi registrada a presença de helmintos de Ancylostoma sp. e Strongyloides sp. É frequente a infecção por parasitos gastrointestinais em primatas em cativeiro. Com os resultados do presente trabalho conclui-se que a realização de avaliações parasitológicas periódicas se faz necessária para melhor manejo sanitário destes animais.Research, Society and Development2022-02-04info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/2605710.33448/rsd-v11i2.26057Research, Society and Development; Vol. 11 No. 2; e52211226057Research, Society and Development; Vol. 11 Núm. 2; e52211226057Research, Society and Development; v. 11 n. 2; e522112260572525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIenghttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/26057/22826Copyright (c) 2022 Eliene Campos Macedo; Rayana Emanuelle Rocha Teixeira; Stefania Pereira Santos; Vinícius de Jesus Oliveira; Edma Santos de Antonio; Isabela Sousa Prado; Caique dos Santos Aguiar; Laize Tomazi; Márcio Borba da Silva; Ricardo Evangelista Fragahttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMacedo, Eliene Campos Teixeira, Rayana Emanuelle Rocha Santos, Stefania Pereira Oliveira, Vinícius de Jesus Antonio, Edma Santos dePrado, Isabela Sousa Aguiar, Caique dos Santos Tomazi, Laize Silva, Márcio Borba da Fraga, Ricardo Evangelista 2022-02-07T01:42:50Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/26057Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2024-01-17T09:44:11.605636Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false
