摘要: The mountainous and foothill areas, in which the city of Zakopane, capital Tatra County, is located are characterized by continuous weather changes, lower air temperature, persistent snow cover, poorer vegetation than lowlands. Ixodes ricinus hexagonus vectors tick-borne diseases play an important role persistence diseases. aim study was to determine risk exposure domestic cats dogs attacks Ixodid ticks, infections with Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato, Anaplasma phagocytophilum, Babesia microti Toxoplasma gondii Zakopane surrounding area. In 2017-2018 ticks were collected from a total 10 88 dogs. Selected pathogens detected PCR nested PCR. material contained 119 I. 36 hexagonus. molecular examinations showed presence A. phagocytophilum 3.8%, B. 24.5% T. 4.5% all ticks. addition, area, there high potential infection microti, low infection.
