Abstract

The aim of the study was to diagnose the Entamoeba spp. in cattle and sheep by using PCR method, for
identified some of these species used the Nested multiplex PCR. The nested multiplex polymerase chain
reaction was conducted using the small subunit 18S rRNA gene , the results show total infection rate of
Entamoeba spp was (60%) which include to(30%) in cattle and 30%in sheep. The results second reaction
show that the percent of E.histolytica was (30%) in cattle and (30%) in sheep
