Ivermectin delivered continuously from a rumino-reticular sustained release device was prophylactically effective in preventing establishment of nine nematode parasite species in multiply-exposed cattle. Ivermectin dosages which permitted less than or equal to 1% of infected control calf worm populations to establish ranged from less than 2.5 micrograms kg-1 day-1, which totally prevented infection with Dictyocaulus viviparus and Oesophagostomum radiatum, to approximately equal to 30 micrograms kg-1 day-1 required to suppress Nematodirus helvetianus to the same extent. Between these extremes, in decreasing order of sensitivity to enterical sustained release ivermectin, were Ostertagia ostertagi, Trichostrongylus axei, Haemonchus placei, Cooperia punctata, C. oncophora and T. colubriformis which were maximally affected at less than or equal to 10 micrograms kg-1 day-1 of ivermectin.  相似文献

Paraherquamide, an oxindole alkaloid metabolite of Penicillium paraherquei and Penicillium charlesii, was tested against the adult stages of nine common gastrointestinal and lung nematodes of calves at single, oral dosages of 0.5, 1.0, 2.0 or 4.0 mg kg-1. At dosages 1.0-4.0 mg kg-1 there was 95% or more removal of Haemonchus placei, Ostertagia ostertagi, Trichostrongylus axei, Trichostrongylus colubriformis, Cooperia oncophora, Nematodirus helvetianus, Oesophagostomum radiatum, and Dictyocaulus viviparus. Cooperia punctata, the dosage-limiting species, was virtually unaffected by any dosage except the highest, which produced an efficacy of 89%. The 0.5 mg kg-1 dosage was 95% or more efficacious against H. placei, O. ostertagi, C. oncophora, and D. viviparus, but weaknesses were evident against the other five species. No adverse reaction was observe in any calf.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate efficacy of topically administered doramectin against eyeworms, lungworms, and gastrointestinal nematodes of cattle. ANIMALS: 400 cattle (20 cattle in each of 20 trials). PROCEDURE: Trials were conducted in North America; natural and experimentally induced infections were used. In each trial, cattle were allocated randomly to control (placebo [saline [0.9% NaCl] solution at 1 ml/10 kg of body weight] or untreated; n = 10) or doramectin-treated (500 microg/kg of body weight; 10) groups. Treatments were applied in a single passage along the midline of the back, from the withers to the tailhead. Cattle were euthanatized > or =14 days after treatment, and worm burdens were determined by use of standard techniques. RESULTS: Efficacy of doramectin was > or =95.3% against adults of Thelazia gulosa, T skrjabini, Dictyocaulus viviparus, Haemonchus contortus, H placei, Ostertagia lyrata, O ostertagi, Trichostrongylus axei, Bunostomum phlebotomum, Capillaria spp, Cooperia oncophora, C pectinata, C punctata, C spatulata, C surnabada, Nematodirus spathiger, Strongyloides papillosus, T colubriformis, Oesophagostomum radiatum, and Trichuris spp. Efficacy was 95.1% against fourth-stage larvae of D viviparus, H placei, O lyrata, O ostertagi, T axei, C oncophora, C punctata, C spatulata, C surnabada, N helvetianus, T colubriformis, O radiatum, and Trichuris spp. In addition, efficacy against inhibited fourth-stage larvae of O ostertagi and Ostertagia spp was > or =98.1%. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: A single topical application of doramectin pour-on was efficacious against a broad range of nematode species in cattle.  相似文献

Two formulations of avermectin B1a, C-076 and MK-933, were examined for anthelmintic activity in two trials, each using 20 calves with experimentally produced nematode infections. In one trial, C-076 was given orally, and in the other trial, MK-933 was given by injection at dosages of 50, 100, and 200 micrograms/kg of body weight. Treated calves were held for 7 to 8 days and then, together with nontreated controls, were euthanatized and were examined for nematodes in their gastrointestinal tracts and lungs. Efficacy of C-076 approached 100% for Dictyocaulus viviparus, Ostertagia ostertagi, Trichostrongylus axei, T colubriformis, and Oesophagostomum radiatum at 50 micrograms/kg. A dosage level of 100 micrograms/kg was required to achieve 97% efficacy against Cooperia punctata. Efficacy of MK-933 at 50 micrograms/kg was variable, but at 100 micrograms/kg, it approached 100% for D viviparus, O ostertagi, Haemonchus placei, T axei, and T longispicularis. Activity against C oncophora was less, reaching 80% efficacy at 200 micrograms/kg.  相似文献

Twelve Holstein calves were used to determine the prophylactic efficacy of ivermectin against challenge exposure with gastrointestinal and pulmonary nematodes. Two groups of 6 calves (mean body weight, 205 kg) each were formed by restricted randomization according to body weight. Group-1 calves served as nonmedicated controls. Each calf of group 2 was orally given one prototype sustained-release bolus designed to deliver ivermectin at a continuous daily dose of 8 mg. Third-stage nematode infective larvae were given to the calves on posttreatment days 28 and 42. The calves were euthanatized 77 or 78 days after treatment. Ivermectin was 100% effective (P less than 0.05) in preventing the establishment of infection by Haemonchus placei, Ostertagia ostertagi, Cooperia spp (C punctata, C oncophora, C surnabada), Nematodirus helvetianus, Oesophagostomum radiatum, and Dictyocaulus viviparus and was greater than 99% effective against Trichostrongylus axei. Incidental infection by Trichuris spp was reduced by 94% (P = 0.08).  相似文献

The anthelmintic efficacy of ivermectin (IVM) delivered from a sustained-release (SR) bolus was evaluated against natural infections with gastrointestinal tract nematodes in 12 crossbred beef heifers in spring. The 12 calves were randomly allotted to 2 groups of 6 calves each. Group-1 calves were treated with an SR bolus designed to deliver 8 mg of ivermectin/d. Group-2 calves were nontreated controls. Cattle groups were kept in separate concrete-floored pens (grass hay nutrition) and slaughter was performed at 35 days after treatment. Fecal egg counts for group-1 calves remained zero after treatment, except for detection of less than 1 egg/g of feces in 1 calf at the time of slaughter; counts in nontreated calves increased. Mean and range of Ostertagia ostertagi inhibited larvae in nontreated calves were 27,093 and 10,622 to 56,368, respectively. Efficacy of the IVM SR bolus was 100% against O ostertagi developing fourth-stage larvae (L4) and inhibited early L4, Haemonchus placei adults, Cooperia punctata and C spatulata adult males, Cooperia spp adult females, Cooperia spp L4, Trichostrongylus colubriformis adults, Bunostomum phlebotomum adults, and Oesophagostomum radiatum adults. Efficacy for O ostertagi and T axei adults was 99.9%. Numbers of nontreated calves infected with C pectinata adult males and Oes radiatum L4 were too low to evaluate efficacy. Calves treated with the IVM bolus gained 10.2 kg, whereas nontreated calves lost 1.8 kg. Abomasal lesions were clearly greater in nontreated calves on the basis of index comparisons of abomasal weight and total live weight and gross pathologic features.  相似文献

Anthelmintic efficacy of ivermectin (greater than or equal to 80% 22,23-dihydroavermectin B1a and less than or equal to 20% 22,23-dihydroavermectin B1b) was evaluated in a controlled experiment against immature nematodes. Twenty calves raised to about 8 weeks of age under nematode-free conditions were allocated into 4 groups. Infective larvae of Haemonchus contortus, Ostertagia ostertagi, Trichostrongylus axei, T colubriformis, Cooperia oncophora, C punctata, Oesophagostomum radiatum, and Dictyocaulus viviparus were given orally to each calf on a staggered schedule 6 to 14 days before treatments. The drug was given subcutaneously when the nematodes were in the early 4th stage of development, and the calves were killed 23 or 24 days later. Group 1 nonmedicated control calves had a geometric mean of 25,102 nematodes; groups 2, 3, and 4 calves given ivermectin at dose rates of 50, 100, or 200 micrograms/kg had reductions of 88.2%, 98.0%, and 99.8%, respectively.  相似文献

Oxfendazole, methyl [5-(Phenylsulfinyl)-1H-benzimidazol-2-yl]carbamate given to calves at dose level of 2.5 mg/kg as a paste, as a bolus, or as a drench resulted in excellent (97 to 100%) anthelmintic efficacy against mature Ostertagia ostertagi, Trichostrongylus axei, Cooperia oncophora, C mcmasteri, C pectinata, C punctata, Nematodirus helvetianus, Trichostrongylus longispicularis, Chabertia ovina, and Oesophagostomum radiatum. Against the early 4th stage larvage of O ostertagia and N helvetianus, these formulations had anthelmintic efficacies of 71% to 87% and 21% to 65%, respectively. As the result of differences in drug intake by individual calves, a pelleted feed additive given as top dress on chopped alfalfa hay gave an unsatisfactory mean anthelmintic response. Anthelmintic action in individual calves ranged from none to 98--100%.  相似文献

Gastrointestinal tracts of 48 yearling Maine dairy cattle were examined (8 animals every 2 months) for 1 year. Adult and immature nematodes were identified and counted. Species recovered were Bunostomum phlebotomum, Cooperia mcmasteri, Cooperia oncophora, Cooperia pectinata, Cooperia punctata, Haemonchus placei, Nematodirus helvetianus, Oesophagostomum radiatum, Ostertagia circumcincta, Ostertagia lyrata, Ostertagia ostertagi, Trichostongylus axei, and Trichuris ovis. Strongyle parasitism was observed during every sampling period and the overall incidence was 93.7%. The most commonly encountered genera were Ostertagia spp (85.4%) and Cooperia spp (81.2%). Seasonal fluctuations in the worm burden of various nematodes were observed, with largest numbers seen in the fall. The incidence and degree of parasitism appeared to be related to environmental conditions. Proportions of adult and immature worms were shown to fluctuate with the time of year. Greatest numbers of immature worms were observed during the fall and winter.  相似文献

The persistent anthelmintic effect of ivermectin as a topical treatment at 500 microg/kg was evaluated against induced infections of Ostertagia ostertagi, Trichostrongylus axei and Dictyocaulus vivparus in calves. The results showed a highly significant (P<0.001) anthelmintic activity for at least 14 days against O. ostertagi and T.axei (>99 per cent efficacies) and for at least 28 days (98 per cent efficacy) against D. viviparus.  相似文献

Albendazole, methyl 5-propylthio-1H-benzimidazol-2-yl carbamate, was given as a bolus (7.68 to 8.18 mg/kg of body weight) to cattle naturally infected with gastrointestinal nematodes and lungworms in a controlled trial. Over 99% of adult Ostertagia ostertagi, Trichostrongylus longispicularis, Cooperia oncophora, Nematodirus helvetianus, and Dictyocaulus viviparus were removed by the treatment. Efficacy against immature O ostertagi, early fourth-stage O ostertagi, and Oesophagostomum radiatum was 95.2%, 86.6%, and 96.7%, respectively. In a field trial, the same compound administered in a paste formulation (at approximately 7.5 mg/kg) eliminated over 99% of strongylin and Moniezia eggs from feces of treated cattle.  相似文献

The efficacy of morantel tartrate when administered on a continuous basis directly into the rumen/reticulum of cattle, either by a cannula or from a specially designed device, was evaluated against gastrointestinal parasites under laboratory conditions. In two experiments the continuous infusion of morantel at rates between 0.26 and 1.04 mg/kg body weight per day using a peristaltic pump was highly efficacious in both preventing the establishment of infections and removing established infections of the following species: Ostertagia ostertagi, Haemonchus contortus, Cooperia oncophora and Trichostrongylus colubriformis. The same dose rates also prevented establishment of Dictyocaulus viviparus infection but were ineffective against established infections of this parasite. In another two experiments the continuous release of morantel tartrate for at least 60 days (at rates between 0.65 and 1.11 mg/kg body weight per day) from a specially designed intraruminal sustained release bolus (secured at each end by a polyethylene impregnated semi-permeable membrane) was highly efficacious in both preventing the establishment of infections and removing established infections of the following species: O. ostertagi, T. axei, T. colubriformis and C. oncophora.  相似文献

Type II ostertagiosis was found at necropsy in 9 American bison (Bison bison) from 3 farms in New York. Clinical signs included severe diarrhea, emaciation, unthrifty coats, anemia, and weakness. In severely affected animals, the macroscopic abomasal changes consisted of irregular thickening and edema of the mucosa, resulting in a pebbly or morocco-leather appearance. Microscopically, many gastric pits and glands were dilated, lined by hyperplastic epithelium, and contained nematode sections or debris. Parasites recovered included Ostertagia ostertagi, Trichostrongylus axei, Trichostrongylus lerouxi, Cooperia oncophora, Haemonchus contortus, Nematodirus helvetianus, Trichuris discolor, Setaria labiato-papillosa, Dictyocaulus viviparus, Hypoderma lineatum, and Sarcocystis sp. Nodules in the small and large intestine were attributed to Oesophagostomum sp. Trichostrongylus lerouxi, Trichuris discolor, and Nematodirus helvetianus are reported from bison for the first time.  相似文献

Efficacy of fenbendazole, at doses of 7.5 and 10.0 mg/kg of body weight, against inhibited early 4th-stage larvae of Ostertagia ostertagi and other nematodes of the abomasum and intestinal tract, was investigated in naturally infected yearling heifers in late May 1982. In Louisiana, this is near the end of the period (March to May) in which maximal numbers of inhibition-prone larvae are acquired. The mean numbers of O ostertagi in 10 untreated control cattle were: adults, 4,880; developing 4th-stage larvae, 12,546; and inhibited early 4th-stage larvae, 167,931. At the 7.5 mg/kg dose level (10% liquid suspension) in 10 cattle, percentage reduction of O ostertagi in comparison with controls was: adults, 95.7%; developing 4th stages, 91.1%; and inhibited 4th stage, 55.0%. Percentage reductions of other genera were as follows: abomasum--Trichostrongylus axei, 99.6%; Haemonchus sp, 95.1%; intestinal tract--Cooperia spp, 97.8%; Trichostrongylus colubriformis, 100.0%; and Oesophagostomum radiatum 4th stage and adults, 100.0%. At the 10.0 mg/kg dose (10% liquid suspension) in 11 cattle, the percentage reduction of O ostertagi in comparison with controls was: adults, 98.6%; developing 4th stages, 92.9%; and inhibited 4th stage, 80.0%. Percentage reductions of other genera were: abomasum--T axei, 99.9%; Haemonchus sp, 98.8%; intestinal tract--Cooperia spp, 99.3%; T colubriformis, 100.0%; and Oes radiatum 4th stage and adults, 100.0%. Variability of efficacy against inhibited larvae was observed, particularly at the 7.5 mg/kg dose; at this dose, 7 of the 10 heifers in the group yielded in excess of 54,000 surviving larvae.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

Exsheathed infective larvae (L 3) of 19 species of nematodes were tested for infectivity in either sheep or cattle after they had been frozen in 0,9% NaCl solution, stored for a relatively short time in the gas phase of liquid nitrogen and subsequently thawed. In addition, 13 of these species were tested after similar storage for up to 18 months. In sheep, Haemonchus contortus, Ostertagia circumcincta, Trichostrongylus axei, Trichostrongylus colubriformis, Nematodirus spathiger and Oesophagostomum columbianum were viable after 2 years of cryopreservation, a mean of greater than 90% of the L 3 being alive when thawed after this period. Similar results were obtained with Chabertia ovina L 3 after 18 months and with Marshallagia marshalli, Trichostrongylus falculatus and Dictyocaulus filaria, after a short period of freezing. On the other hand, Gaigeria pachyscelis and Strongyloides papillosus survived freezing for up to 7 months but neither was viable at the end of this period, nor was exsheathed G. pachyscelis viable without freezing. Most of these infestations were established by inoculating the infective larvae into the abomasum and/or duodenum. M. marshalli, T. falculatus and C. ovina also proved infective after oral dosing. D. filaria, the only other species tested by this route, was not infective when dosed per os after thawing. The infective larvae of the bovine nematodes, Haemonchus placei, Ostertagia ostertagi, Nematodirus helvetianus, Oesophagostomum radiatum, Cooperia pectinata and Cooperia punctata survived freezing for a mean of 26 months, greater than 90% being alive on thawing, but infectivity was generally lower than with the same genera in sheep. Even when not frozen, exsheathed Bunostomum phlebotomum was non-infective. When Cooperia spp. after thawing were tested for infectivity by the oral route, more worms developed in one calf infested orally than in another infested by inoculation into the duodenum. Ova of H. contortus, M. marshalli, O. circumcincta, T. colubriformis, T. falculatus, N. spathiger, C. ovina, H. placei, O. ostertagi, Cooperia spp. and N. helvetianus were recovered from the faeces of animals infested with cryopreserved L 3. No ova of O. columbianum or O. radiatum were recovered from faeces, because differential larval counts were performed before they were patent. Nevertheless, gravid females were obtained post-mortem. Frozen L 3 of N. helvetianus were used to re-establish a pure strain in calves, 2,3 million ova being recovered from infestations with 10 670 L 3 frozen for 26 months. The infectivity of the progeny of frozen L 3 was tested with M. marshalli and C. ovina. In both instances infectivity was high and the worms which developed also produced ova, thus completing the cycle. This appears to be the first report of infective larvae of parasitic nematodes retaining their infectivity after being frozen in liquid nitrogen (gas phase) for longer than 2 years. This is also apparently the first time that M. marshalli T. colubriformis, T. falculatus, T. axei, N. spathiger, C...  相似文献

The 22,23-dihydro derivative (ivermectin) of the major B1 components of the avermectins was evaluated, by oral and parenteral routes, for anthelmintic activity in cattle experimentally infected with 7 gastro-intestinal nematode species and lungworm. Treatment at three dosage levels was administered when the parasites were in the L4 developmental stage or when adult. The dosage expected to remove 95% of the nematodes (ED95) by each route of administration against the various developmental stages of each species of parasite was calculated by methods of linear regression to choose dose levels to be used in subsequent developmental field trials. Parenterally, efficacy against L4 stages of Haemonchus placei, Ostertagia ostertagi, Trichostrongylus axei, T. colubriformis, Cooperia oncophora, C. punctata, Oesophagostomum radiatum and Dictyocaulus viviparus exceeded 99% with treatment at 0.2 mg ivermectin/kg. Parenteral treatment of the adult parasites resulted in at least 98% reduction of worm burdens, except ? 90% for T. colubriformis, with 0.2 mg/kg. Oral treatment of L4 stages of development with 0.2 mg/kg resulted in at least a 95% reduction in worm burdens of each of the 8 species of parasite. Oral treatment of the adult worms with 0.1 mg ivermectin/kg produced at least a 98% decrease in each parasite species, except for T. colubriformis (90% reduction) for which dose-response calculations suggest 95% efficacy with oral treatment at 0.2 mg/kg.  相似文献

Ten unmedicated animals of a controlled anthelmintic trial were used to analyse the present gastrointestinal helminth fauna of young cattle from the northwest of Germany. This survey done in August revealed Ostertagia ostertagi to represent the most prevalent and abundant species followed by Cooperia oncophora and Nematodirus helvetianus. O. lyrata, O. leptospicularis, C. zurnabada, C. punctata, Trichostrongylus axei, Haemonchus contortus, Bunostomum phlebotomum, Capillaria bovis and Trichuris discolor were less prevalent and abundant. These findings are closely similar to findings from investigations more than 20 years ago although since that time anthelmintics have been used increasingly.  相似文献

A controlled trial was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of the intraruminal ivermectin controlled-release capsule (CRC) (IVOMEC Maximizer CR Capsule for Sheep, Merial Ltd.) against induced incoming third-stage larvae and established adult infections with some rarer gastrointestinal nematode parasites of sheep. Twenty-one worm-free lambs were allocated by restricted randomisation based on body weight within sex to one of the following treatments: unmedicated control, ivermectin CRC given on Day 0 prior to induced infection, and ivermectin CRC given on Day 70 after establishment of induced infection. The ivermectin CRC delivers ivermectin at a minimum dose rate of 20 microg/kg/day for 100 days. Infections were induced by daily administration of third-stage larvae for five consecutive days. Nematodes were counted on Day 84, 14 days after treatment of established infection. The treatment with the ivermectin CRC prevented the establishment of Ostertagia leptospicularis, O. ostertagi, Bunostomum trigonocephalum, Cooperia oncophora, C. punctata, C. surnabada, Nematodirus helvetianus, N. roscidus and Strongyloides papillosus by >99% as compared with the untreated controls (p < 0.01). The administration of the ivermectin CRC reduced established adult infections of O. ostertagi, B. trigonocephalum, C. oncophora, C. punctata, C. surnabada, N. roscidus and S. papillosus by >99% (p < 0.01), and reduced established adult infections of O. leptospicularis and N. helvetianus by 96.5 and 98.4% (p < 0.01), respectively.  相似文献

Infective larvae of selected batched of the following nematode species from sheep and cattle were examined for survival and infectivity (by injection into either the abomasum, the duodenum, or the jugular vein) after having been stored in liquid nitrogen for 103-136 months: Haemonchus contortus, Haemonchus placei, Ostertagia circumcincta, Ostertagia ostertagi, Marshallagia marshalli, Cooperia spp., Trichostrongylus axei, Trichostrongylus colubriformis, Trichostrongylus falculatus, Nematodirus spathiger, Nematodirus helvetianus, Oesophagostomum columbianum, Oesophagostomum radiatum, Chabertia ovina and Dictyocaulus filaria. Excluding D. filaria, a mean of 97.7% of the ovine and 96.0% of the bovine nematode larvae were alive when thawed. Compared with previous investigations in this series, little or no reduction occurred with time in either the survival or the viability of the nematodes from cattle, or in the survival of those from sheep. In contrast, the larvae developed poorly in sheep, possibly owing to parenteral treatment of the animals with ivermectin at a dosage of 0.4 mg kg-1, either 6 or 8 days before they were infected.  相似文献

Anthelmintic activities of the B1a fraction of avermectin were evaluated in a controlled experiment. Twenty 12-week-old calves artificially infected with gastrointestinal nematodes were allotted to four groups. Calves in group 1 were used as nonmedicated controls; other calves in groups 2, 3, and 4 were given (orally) B1a avermectin at dosage levels of 50, 100, and 200 microgram/kg of body weight, respectively. These treatments were given 35 days after calves were inoculated with infective nematode larvae. In groups 2, 3, and 4, overall reductions (based on geometric means) were 98.6%, 98.7%, and 98.4%, respectively. These reductions were highly significantly different (P less than 0.01) from the control calves. Nematodes in the calves were Haemonchus contortus. Ostertagia ostertagi, Trichostrongylus axei, T colubriformis, Cooperia oncophora, C punctata, and Oesophagostomum radiatum.  相似文献
