Villar, F.A. Mauricio-Ramos, Y. Gomez,, E.A. Payano, I.U South American camelids Zoonotic diseases Parasitosis Sarcocystosis Camélidos sudamericanos Enfermedades zoonóticas Parasitosis The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of Sarcocystis sp. in alpaca carcasses commercialized in the Junín region, Peru. An exhaustive analysis of data collected from January to December 2022 was conducted, wherethe entry of these carcasses into the main market of the mentioned region was observed. The samples for the study included a total of 1716 carcasses, where the regions of Junín, Huancavelica and Lima contributed 572 carcasses each. The methodology used to identify infected individuals was based on macroscopic analysis of cysts generated by the presence of Sarcocystis sp. The findings revealed a prevalence of 16.78% (68/572) of Sarcocystis sp. in carcasses from the Junín region. On the other hand, a prevalence of 11.88% (96/572) was observed in the Lima region and 5.24% (30/572) in the Huancavelica region. Additionally, Odds Ratios (p<0.05) of 2.44 and 3.64 were calculated for the Junín and Lima regions, respectively, compared to Huancavelica. The study demonstrates a prevalence of sarcocystosis in the studied regions, with higher frequency in Lima and Junín compared to Huancavelica. El objetivo primordial de este estudio consistió en evaluar la prevalencia de Sarcocystis sp., en las carcasas de alpacas comercializadas en la región de Junín, Perú. Se llevó a cabo un exhaustivo análisis de datos recopilados durante el período comprendido entre enero y diciembre del año 2022, período durante el cual se observó el ingreso de estas carcasas al mercado principal de la mencionada región. El estudio abarcó un total de 1.716 carcasas durante el período mencionado, donde las regiones de Junín, Huancavelica y Lima aportaron 572 carcasas década una. La metodología empleada para la identificación de individuos infectados se basó en la realización de análisis macroscópicos de quistes generados por la presencia de Sarcocystis sp. Los hallazgos revelaron una prevalencia del 16,78% (68/572) de Sarcocystis sp., en las carcasas procedentes de la región de Junín. Por otro lado, se observó una prevalencia del 11,88% (96/572) en la región de Lima y del 5.24% (30/572) en la región de Huancavelica. Además, se calcularon Odds Ratio (p<0,05) de 2,44 y 3,64 para las regiones de Junín y Lima, respectivamente, en comparación con Huancavelica. El estudio evidencia una prevalencia de Sarcocystis sp., de las regiones estudiadas, con mayor frecuencia en Lima y Junín en comparación con Huancavelica.
