초록
A preliminary survey of Sarcocystis species in the slaughtered cattle in Seoul was undertaken during October through December 1987, using digestion diagnostic technique for the heart muscle specimens digested in 0.5% trypsin solution. Results indicated that 41.5% of 159 bovine hearts were infected with Sarcocystis proliferative forms. High frequencies in the exotic dairy cattle(42.2%) and the Korean native cattle(41.7%) were noticed in comparison with low frequency in the cross breed(25.0%). No differences were indicated between the sexes of the host animals, although an age difference was noticed as 48.9% in cattle older than four years in comparison with 39.0% and 37.1% in younger than two years and in two to four years, respectively.
