Welcome to the fascinating and complex world of animal sarcocystosis, this document has been designed to provide you with a comprehensive understanding of this parasitic disease, which hold significant importance for both animal health and food safety. Sarcocystosis, caused by protozoa of the Sarcocystis genus, affects many animal species, including cattle, sheep, pigs, and horses. These parasites are responsible for various clinical forms, ranging from asymptomatic infections to severe clinical manifestations (before slaughter) such as eosinophilic myositis (after slaughter). Additionally, some species of Sarcocystis are zoonotic, presenting a risk to human health, especially through the consumption of raw or undercooked meat.
