Efficacy of anthelmintics against nematodes in naturally infected free range ducks

Araştırmanın amacı dört antelmentiğin (piperazin sitrat, albendazol, fenbendazol, ivermektin) doğal enfekte ördeklerde etkinliğini belirlemektir. Farklı çiftliklerden elde edilen yirmi ördek temin edilerek dışkıları üç ayrı helmint açısından incelendi. Ördekler dört eşit gruba beş uygulama yapılacak şekilde ayrıldı. Dışkının her gramındaki yumurta oranı tedaviden önce ve sonraki 7, 14, 21 ve 30. günlerde hesaplandı. Amidostomum türü hariç bütün antelmentikler 14 güne kadar %100 etkinlik gösterdi. Fenbendazol 21. günde Capillaria tune %67 oranında etkiliyken diğerlerine %100 etkili olduğu belirlendi. Ivermektinin 21. güne kadar helmintlere %100 etkili olduğu belirlendi. Piperazin sitrat, fenbendazole ve ivermektin ile tedavi edilen ördeklerde Capillaria türlerinde karşı maksimumum koruma sağlandığı belirlendi. Sonuç olarak piperazin sitrat ile ivermektinin albendazol ile fenbendazolden daha etkin olduğu ifade edilebilir.

Doğal olarak enfekte ördeklerde antelmektiklerin etkinliği

The objective of this study was to compare the efficacy of four anthelmintics (piperazine citrate, albendazole, fenbendazole, ivermectin) against nematodes of free range ducks. Twenty free-range ducks were selected from different farmer's house by fecal examination which was infected with three species of helminths. Ducks were divided into four treatment groups with five replications. Eggs per gram of faeces (epg) were calculated on pre-treatment and on day 7th, 14th, 21st and 30th post-treatment. All the anthelmintics showed 100% efficacy up to 14 days against all helminths except Amidostomum sp. Fenbendazole showed 100% efficacy against all nematodes except 67% against Capillaria sp. up to 21 days. Ivermectin showed 100% efficacy against all the helminths up to 21 days. Ducks treated with piperazine citrate, fenbendazole and ivermectin got the maximum protection against infection with Capillaria sp. In conclusion, it might be stated that piperazine citrate and ivermectin showed better efficacy than albendazole and fenbendazole.
