| dc.description | Gastro-intestinal (GI) nematodes remain a serious health problem in ruminants, in
Bangladesh. Studies on animals reported prevalence of GI nematodes ranging from
65 — 100 %, and mortality due to parasitic gastro-enteritis ranging from 5 — 17 %
(Kaneene et al., 1985, Gorman et al., 1986, Meister et al., 1993).
Parasites can impose a great burden on the welfare of ruminants, affecting their
growth and productivity. Being such a significant threat to animal health, it is
important to provide comprehensive information on environmentally, friendly and
economically viable options for treatment of these internal parasites. | 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 Asia Dairy Farm, Boroil,
Gopalgonj,Dinajpur, during the period from July to December/2012. 15
cattle were randomly divided into 3 groups (A, B and C). Group A was kept
for control, Group B was treated with Pineapple stem and Group C was
treated with the Ivermectin. Those two were screened for assessment their
comparative efficacy against gastro-intestinal nematodiasis in cattle in
Dinajpur District. Pineapple stem was used at a dose of 150mg/kg bwt for
seven consecutive days and Ivermectin at a dose of 200ug/kg bwt as a
single dose. Efficacy was recorded as compared to control on the basis of
fecal egg count. Ivermectin showed 100% efficacy within 28" days of
treatment. On the other hand, Pineapple stem showed 80% efficacy on 28"
day of treatment. Weekly observations were recorded for live body weight,
weekly gain in weight, weekly feed consumption, feed efficiency and blood
parameters of cattle for six months. All the treatment groups B (106.01) and
C (1.25) recorded significantly higher means for live body weight than that
of control A (90) group. | en_US |
