Abstract
The article describes the associative infection of sheep with parasitic diseases. Determining the presence of helminthic and blood-parasitic diseases was carried out in sheep farms of the Masalli region of Azerbaijan. In scatological studies in animals, infection with nematodiasis caused by the nematode Nematodirus spathiger from the Trichostrongylidae family was detected, and a clinical examination of sick and recovered sheep was also carried out. Anaplasmosis and babesiosis have been registered in sheep, the carriers of which are ticks Rhipisephalus bursa. Microscopic examination of the causative agent of anaplasmosis and babesiosis is located in the center of erythrocytes, and up to 1-4 parasites can be traced in one erythrocyte. The parasites are round and pear-shaped, 1.2-5 µm in size with a pear-shaped form and 1-1.5 µm with a round one, and there are about 20-45% of babesias in 100 fields of view of a microscope. Thus, an association of parasitic diseases - nematodirosis, babesiosis and anaplasmosis has been established in the sheep farms of the Masalli region of Azerbaijan.
