The objective of this work was to investigate certain biochemical parameters   in the blood of sheep in conditions of different intensity of parasitic   infection with Strongyloides papillosus, and also after the therapy with   albendazole. The research was carried out on the sheep of Wurtemberg breed (n   = 30) in which there was determined low, medium and high intensity of   parasitic infection with S. papillosus. The control group (n = 10) consisted   of the sheep that were negative to the presence of the parasitic infection.   The degree and type of changes were monitored by determining the   concentration of glucose, total protein, albumin, Albumin/Globulin ratio,   AST, urea, total bilirubin, calcium, phosphorus, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH)   total activity and isoenzyme distribution LDH1-5. On the basis of the   obtained results it was concluded, through isoenzyme distribution of lactate   dehydrogenase, that parasitic infection with S. papillosus can cause damage   to the liver, heart muscle and lungs, while after the therapy with   albendazole, the most affected organ is the liver. The concentration of   glucose, total protein and albumin linearly decreased with the increase of   intensity of the parasitic infection (p < 0,05), and after the therapy with   albendazole, a drop in concentration of these parameters was at a   statistically significantly higher level (p< 0,01). AST activity as well as   the concentration of urea and total bilirubin grew linearly along with the   intensity of the parasitic infection (p < 0,05). After the therapy with ABZ,   AST activity and concentration of total bilirubin were at a statistically   significantly higher level (p < 0,001), while urea concentration kept the   same level as in the case of the parasitic infection. The values of calcium   concentration (p > 0,05) as well as phosphorus (p < 0,05) linearly decreased   with the parasitic infection intensity growth. Trend towards the decline of   the concentration of these macroelements continues even after the therapy   with albendazole (p < 0,001). Considering our previous research in the field   of oxidative stress, a phenomenon that is fundamentally related to the   changes determined in this work, we strongly recommend that besides   antihelmintics, preparations with antioxidative properties should be used in   antiparasitic protocols as well
