3.1. Prevalence of Giardia cysts shed by wild rhesus macaques
Examination of rhesus macaque faecal samples using immunofluorescent microscopy revealed the presence of Giardia cysts in 31% (53/170) of samples. Macaques excreted 55 to 6325 cysts per gramme faeces (mean, 555; median, 165). There was a significant difference in the prevalence of Giardia cysts between Troops 1, 2, 3 and 4; 45% (25/55), 20% (9/55), 33% (15/46) and 17% (4/24), respectively (p <0.05).
