It is considered to be highly responbsible for substantial economic losses. The present project was designed to achieve the following objectives:
1) To detect the Prevalence of Ascariasis in buffaloe and cow calves.
2) To study the effect of Ascarids on various blood parameters (Hb, TLC and DLC).
For this purpose 230 buffalo calves and 210 cow calves were selected which were brought to Lahore abbattoir for slaughtering purpose and samples were collected before slaughtering.
For the prevalence of Ascariasis in young buffalo and cow calves, faecal samples of 230 buffalo calves and 210 cow calves were processed through coprological examination. Out of 230 buffalo calves faecal samples 31 were found to be positive for Ascariasis giving a percentage of 13.47%. Similarly out of 210 faecal samples of cow calves, 26 wre found to be postitive for Ascariasis giving a percentage of 12.38%.
Similarly in these animals blood prmeters ie. Hb estimation total leukocytic count and differential leukocytic count were tested. Result showed varying values due to some other mixed infection.
