VILJOEN, J . H . Further studies on the epizootiology of nematode parasites of sheep in the Karoo. Onderstepoort J. vet. Res., 36 (2) , 233-264, (1969). The dominant parasites in the Karoo are Nematodirus spathiger (Railliet , 1896) and Trichostrongylus falculatus Ransom , 1911 . In the moister eastern regions Haemonchus contortus (Rudolphi, 1803) and Oesophagostomum columbianum (Curtice, 1890)...

Ultrasonography has already revealed that up to 50% of individuals in some villages in northern Ghana have colonic pathology induced by Oesophagostomum bifurcum. Approximately 2% of those affected progress to clinical oesophagostomiasis if left untreated. In the present study, ultrasound-positive children living in a heavily infected community were each given 5 days of treatment with albendazol...

In [4] a complex is constructed whose top-dimensional cells correspond to minimal factorizations of a Coxeter element as a product of reflections in a finite Coxeter group. Asphericity is established in low dimensions using a metric of non-positive curvature. Since the nonpositive curvature condition is difficult to check in higher dimensions a combinatorial approach is used in [3] in the case ...

Gastrointestinal nematodes are becoming increasingly resistant to the commercial products used to control them. The cost of routine vermifuge applications on herds and the problem of residues in animal products and the environment have prompted research on the anthelmintic activity of plant extracts. This work examines the anthelmintic action of neem and the homeopathic product Fator Vermes in ...

The study evaluated the anthelmintic activity of aqueous extract of Zanthoxylum rhoifolium leaves in two experiments. In vitro test, cultures of goat fecal samples were treated with different concentrations of extract (134.5 to 335.0 mg.mL(-1)). In vivo test was composed of 20 sheep: G1: treated with 0.63 g.kg(-1), during four days; G2: same dose, for eight days; G3: ivermectin (200 microg.kg(-...
