| dc.description.abstract | A stud y was conducted at EL FO RA Export Aballoir. Dcbrc·Zeit in order to compa re the d iffe ren t di agnos ti c tec hniq ues in nl1 11 in anl fa sc iolo sis. T he results of standa rd faeca l sedim entat ion techni que fo r nuke egg quant ifi cat ion was compa red to th a t of an l!llzymc linked immu nosorbcll t assay (indirect ELI SA ) les t and liver inspect io n as we ll as res u lts of SenllTI enzyme activ ities. Out o f th e 324 call1 e , 350 sheep and 385 goats s laughtered at ELFORA Export Abatto ir , 125 (38.5%), 4 ( l.l-Jo~o) and 2 (0.5 10'0) were found \0 be posni\-e for lesions of fasc io losis, re specti ve ly duri ng post mortem in specti on.

In sma ll nuninant s . the preva le nce of fasclo losls \\IIS low botb in coproscopy a nd indirec t ELI SA testes: on ly one o ut of 68 sheep was positive coproscopicall y a nd J we re posi tiv e sero logi cally: and one a liI of 22 goats tested was po::,itl\ e both at coproscopy and se rology exam ina ti ons. Ti ll S indicates the high scmlllvity of ELISA compared to the others techniques in d iagnos ing fascio los is. The o \'era ll assessment indicatl!s the relatedness of faeca l examina ti on result w ith ELISA find ings. though thc test agreement I::, weak ( Kappa 0.236). SimJiariy. there was a strong relationship between faecnl e'\ammatlon and postmortem findings o f liver lesions, Kappa value . P=0.758). Out of the 5-l canle \\Hh known li\'er lesions of fasc iola 33 (6 1. 1%) were ha\lng e levated Ic\cls of GGT than l10nmil \'aluc for caule. m support of the above statement, our findmgs regardmg the kvcl of GGT suggest its association wi th li ver lesions encounte red at postmortem examination. The k\ cl of test of agrccment between the liver exa mination and GGT determination \\as howc\ er moderate (Kappa=0.332).
