Uso de seringas plásticas hipodérmicas descartáveis para a medida de fezes bovinas, a fim de comparar os parâmetros ovos de nematóides "por mililitro de fezes" (o.p.ml.) e "por grama de fezes" (o.p.g.)

Resumo

The use of plastic hupodermic syringes for measuring bovine foeces and for the comparison between the parameters e.p.ml. and e.p.g. raised the following results: 1) no significam difference was found between the average values of e.p.ml. and e.p.g.; 2) for both parameters the calves had higher average egg counts and a broader range of variation than the cows; the male calves had them larger than pregnant cows; 4) cross-bred cows of the Bos taurus X B. indicus type known as "Girolanda" had larger averages for both parameters than purebred B. indicus cows of the Gir breed, when they were ali pregnant; 5) plastic hypodermic syringes with cut-off distai extremity of the outside cylinder were adequate for the measuring of bovine foeces Ín mililiters, a techníque which made the use of the parameter e.p.ml. more practical and economic than the use of the parameter e.p.g. in studies involving the quantification of Strongyloidea eggs in bovine foeces.
