Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" The lambs were treated with albendazole (SmithKline Beecham), fenbendazole (Hoechst Roussel) or a vitamin supplement and their weight gains were followed over the next 7 months."3.68Effects of an anthelmintic treatment programme on sheep productivity in the Middle Atlas, Morocco. ( Khallaayoune, K; Stromberg, BE, 1992)
" The health workers administered the correct dosage satisfactorily and there were no adverse effects."2.71Periodic deworming with albendazole and its impact on growth status and diarrhoeal incidence among children in an urban slum of India. ( Bhattacharya, SK; Manna, B; Rajendran, K; Saha, DR; Sur, D, 2005)
"Live weight gain was significantly lower in INF-UT (27 g/d) and INF-TT (55 g/d) than UINF-UT (88 g/d) or UINF-TT (81 g/d) treatments."1.38No loss of production due to larval challenge in sheep given continuous anthelmintic treatment via a controlled release capsule. ( Kahn, LP; Kelly, GA; Walkden-Brown, SW, 2012)
" The study showed that under set-stocked conditions repeated anthelmintic treatments of both ewes and lambs in early season may ensure sufficient nematode control whereas moving animals to clean pasture without dosing was less efficient."1.31Comparison of worm control strategies in grazing sheep in Denmark. ( Boa, ME; Bøgh, HO; Kassuku, AA; Thamsborg, SM, 2001)
"Albendazole-treated groups gained on average 0."1.28Effect of anthelmintic treatment of second-year cattle on growth performance during winter housing and first lactation yield. ( Borgsteede, FH; Kloosterman, A; Ploeger, HW, 1990)
