Article Synopsis
- Five groups of cattle were treated with various anthelmintics (moxidectin, ivermectin, levamisole phosphate, and albendazole sulphoxide) to assess their effectiveness in reducing fecal parasite eggs.
- Levamisole showed the highest reduction in egg count (97.4%) after 24 hours, while moxidectin and albendazole sulphoxide were effective after 36 hours with reductions of 98.3% and 95.9%, respectively.
- The study found that Cooperia spp. and Haemonchus spp. were resistant to ivermectin, and egg count assessments can indicate parasite resistance within seven days post-treatment.
