Resumo
O objetivo deste estudo foi investigar a ocorrência de parasitos com potencial zoonótico em fezes caninas de todas as praças da zona urbana do município de Araçatuba, São Paulo, Brasil. Para tanto, foram colhidas 321 amostras fecais diretamente do solo de 75 desses locais públicos. A pesquisa destes parasitos foi realizada por meio das Técnicas de Willis e Faust, seguida da visualização de tais formas evolutivas parasitárias. Em 34,7% (26/75) das praças, foi observada contaminação por Ancylostoma spp., Giardia spp, Toxocara spp. e Dipylidium caninum, sendo a maioria localizada na periferia da cidade. Em 9,3% (7/75) destas praças, foi detectada positividade para helmintos e protozoários em locais destinados à recreação infantil. Assim, de forma inédita foi realizada esta pesquisa do município de Araçatuba, SP, em que foi constatada predominância de Ancylostoma spp. nas praças públicas com ocorrência de parasitos com potencial zoonótico em suas áreas de lazer e poliparasitismo somente em bairros periféricos.
The objective of this study was to investigate the occurrence of parasites with zoonotic potential in canine feces of all squares in the urban area of the municipality of Araçatuba, São Paulo, Brasil. For that, 321 fecal samples were collected directly from the soil of 75 public squares. The research of parasites with zoonotic potential was performed using the techniques of Willis and Faust followed by the visualization of such parasite forms in light microscopy, an increase of 400. In 34.7% (26/75) squares, contamination by Ancylostoma spp., Giardia spp, Toxocara spp. and Dipylidium caninum, the majority being located in the outskirts of the city. In 9.3% (7/75) of these squares, parasitic positive fecal samples were observed in places destined for children's recreation. Thus, for the first time this research was carried out, we conclude that there was predominance of Ancylostoma spp. in the public squares of the city of Araçatuba, SP, as well as the existence of parasites with zoonotic potential in their leisure areas and we observed the occurrence of polyparasitism only in peripheral neighborhoods.
