| dc.description | Poultry is a promising sector in Bangladesh which is increasing day by day.
Poultry production is hindered by many problems among which various
diseases namely bacterial, viral and parasitic infections are the most important
(Ojok, 1993). In fact poultry of Bangladesh are parasitized by various
parasites (Sarkar, 1976).The Agro-ecological and geo-climatic condition of
Bangladesh favors the survival, multiplication, spread and perpetuation of
animal parasites. Moreover, management and managerial system play an
important role in high degree of occurrence of parasitic disease in Bangladesh.
Both ecto and endo-parasites affect the poultry health. Islam and Shaikh
(1967) reported that internal parasites are present in chickens of Bangladesh.
There are different types of internal parasites such as roundworms (Ascaridia
spp, Heterokis spp), tapeworms (Railleitina spp) etc. The parasites because of
their adverse effects leads to lower productivity, retarted growth rate and
death of animals (FAO, 1974: Barger, 1982: Steel and Symons, 1982: Sykes,
1982: Holmes, 1986: Sykes, 1994). | en_US |
| dc.description.abstract | An experiment was carried out in the laboratory of the department of
Physiology and Pharmacology, Hajee Mohammad Danesh Science and
Technology University, Dinajpur and Upazila Livestock Office, Palashbari,
Gaibandha, during the period from July to November/2012. 45 chickens
were randomly divided into 3 groups (A, B and C). Group A was kept for
control, Group B was treated with Piperazine citrate (Pipervet®) and Group
C was treated with the aqueous extract of Pineapple leaves. These two were
screened for assessment their comparative efficacy against ascariasis in
indigenous chickens. Pineapple leaves was used at a dose of 1gm/kg bwt for
seven consecutive days and piperazine citrate at a dose of 200mg/kg bwt as a
single dose. Efficacy was recorded as compared to control on the basis of
fecal egg count. Piperazine citrate showed 100% efficacy within 14 days of
treatment. On the other hand, Pineapple leaves showed 80% efficacy on 28"
day of treatment. Post mortem worm count revealed that pineapple leaves
were considerable effective against worm burden. Hematological analysis
revealed that the aqueous extract of leaves did not show any adverse on
blood parameter of treated chickens. | en_US |
