摘要
In this study the prevalence of sarcoptic mange in fattening pigs in Murcia, southeastern Spain was investigated. Results showed that 37% of the 1318 slaughtered pigs examined were positive for Sarcoptes scabiei var. suis. Skin lesions potentially attributable to this mite were present in 92.80% of animals, but the parasite could be detected in only 38.60% of them. The condition of the ear (clean/dirty) was not a defining characteristic for the diagnosis of this swine disease. A sucrose flotation-concentration technique was more effective than direct microscopy in finding the mite in ear scrapings. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V.
