چکیده

In the present study Blood was collected from dogs
(n=110) after clinical examinations and recording of
necessary information(age, sex, breed and housing)
examined by modified knott method. Periodicity of the
microfilaria in peripheral blood circulation, was
determined through blood collection from a dog each hour
for 72 hours. Number of microfilaria in each ml of the
blood samples was calculated and expressed as average of
microfilaria in each hour. Results showed that 15.45% of
dogs were infected by Dirofilaria immitis and 4.55% by
Dipetalonema reconditum. Statistical analysis did not
show significant relationship between infection and age,
sex, breed and housing status. Furthermore, maximum and
minimum numbers of microfilana were seen at 1 am(13316
microfilaria) 12 am(6681 microfilaria) respectively.
Therefore, by considering the infection of dogs on
Golestan province and its transmition to other animals,
control of above-mentioned nematode should be done by
treatment of infected dogs and eradicution of stray dogs.
