Abstract

The present stusy was designed to investigate the effect of the induced equine piro p < /strong>lasmosis in donkeys and its effect on some blood constituents in Assiut province. Survey on 54 donkeys revealed negative results by blood smear examination. Induced infection was tried by splenectomy on 5 donkeys and also by infected blood to another 6 non-sp < /strong>lenectomized donkeyes, one of each group was kept as control. Parasitaemia reached from 30-100% post-splenectomy. The parasite was diagnosed as B. equi and B.caballi morphologically. Non-splenectomized infected donkeys showed p < /strong>ara sitaemia with lower grade than sp < /strong>lenectomized ones. Haematological findings revealed elevations in white blood cells number which cont inued till death in both groups. Neutrop < /strong>hils, eosinophils, haematocrit and haemoglo bin achieved a prominant decrease in both group < /strong>s. Serum values of sodium, potassium were increased in sp < /strong>lenectomized group < /strong>, while cal cium, copper and iron values were decreased in both group < /strong>s. Smears from organs of dead animals were positive for Babesia equi and B. caballi.
