Toxocara cati (71.4%) was found in felines; marsupials were infected with Coccidia (90%). Giardia spp. (24.0%), Blastocystis spp. (12.3%), Iodamoeba spp. (10.0%), Enterobius vermicularis (6.0%) and Entamoeba coli (3.3%) were found in primates. Gastrointestinal strongyles (60.5%) were prevalent in ruminants which resulted positive also to Coccidia (Eimeria spp. = 50.0%), Trichuris spp. (25.0%) and Nematodirus (14.0%). Strongyles (34.0%) were the most frequent parasites in monogastric herbivores, followed by Parascaris equorum (17.0%). None of the animals showed any symptom associated with gastrointestinal parasitic infections. According to our results the need to prevent, diagnose, control, and treat intestinal parasitism trough specific control programs is mandatory for animal welfare in order to limit the spread of parasitic infections in animals and humans.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.2478\/s11686-014-0249-8","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,5,14]],"date-time":"2014-05-14T04:51:46Z","timestamp":1400043106000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":20,"title":["Parasitic infections detected by FLOTAC in zoo mammals from Warsaw, Poland"],"prefix":"10.2478","volume":"59","author":[{"given":"Gianpaolo","family":"Maesano","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Michele","family":"Capasso","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Davide","family":"Ianniello","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Giuseppe","family":"Cringoli","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Laura","family":"Rinaldi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"374","reference":[{"key":"ref131","first-page":"18","article-title":"Anthelmintics Resistance How to Overcome it Iran","volume":"14","author":"Shalaby Hatem","year":"2013","journal-title":"J Parasitol"},{"key":"ref21","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"503","DOI":"10.1038\/nprot.2009.235.http:\/\/dx.doi.org\/10.1038\/nprot.2009.235","article-title":"FLOTAC : new multivalent techniques for qualitative and quantitative copromicroscopic diagnosis of parasites in animals and humans","volume":"3","author":"Cringoli","year":"2010","journal-title":"Nat Protoc"},{"key":"ref71","first-page":"30","article-title":"The importance of gastrointestinal protozoa in captive non -
