Frequency of Hydatid Cyst among Sheep Slaughtered at Alkadarw Slaughterhouse

This work has been conducted at Alkadarow abattoir and slaughter house to identify the frequency of cystic ecchinococcos (CE) among slaughtered animals, a total of five hundred of collected sheep were clinically examined and inspected for the evidence of presence of CE. Animals inspected were imported from three main districts; Kordufan, Butana, and White Nile. Macroscopic and microscopic were done. All inspected animals were sheep. CE was not detected in the study population this evident may be that the efforts of animal health authorities had eventually ended with such elimination of the parasite especially among animals for export. The comparison indicates that there is a significant decrease in the prevalence of CE down to zero per cent as found in this study.
