The objective of this study was to evaluate the in vitro ovicidal activity, phytochemistry, and toxicity of a saline extract obtained from peel of L fruits. The ovicidal activity was evaluated by the hatching inhibition of eggs recovered from fecal samples of naturally infected goats; the phytochemical analysis was carried out using the fruit peel; and the toxicity was tested on , using saline extract. The results showed that the ovicidal effect of the tested extract was 99% (25 mg mL), 99% (12.

Article Synopsis
- The study tested the effectiveness of protein extracts from Cassia fistula L. and Combretum leprosum Mart. leaves against goat gastrointestinal parasites.
- The protein preparations were separated into three fractions (F1, F2, F3) and evaluated for their ability to inhibit egg hatching and larval development.
- Results showed Cassia fistula significantly reduced egg hatching and larval development, while Combretum leprosum had little effect, indicating Cassia fistula is a more effective treatment against these parasites.
Gastrointestinal nematodes are the major cause of animal diseases, and the indiscriminate use of synthetic anthelmintic contributes to the development of drug resistance. Natural bioproducts are noteworthy since they have proved to be promising for alternative antiparasitic therapies. This study evaluated the in vitro effect of WSMoL (water soluble Moringa oleifera lectin) on hatching of eggs and on the development of early-stage larvae of gastrointestinal nematodes from naturally infected goats.
