In vivo assessment of the antiparasitic effects of Allium sativum L. and Artemisia absinthium L. against gastrointestinal parasites in swine from low-input farms.

Background: Ethno-veterinary practices could be used as a sustainable developmental tool by integrating traditional phytotherapy and husbandry. Phytotherapeutics are available and used worldwide. However, evidence of their antiparasitic efficacy is currently very limited.

L. and L., Two Romanian Plants, with In Vivo Antiparasitic Potential against Digestive Parasites of Swine.

Internal parasitic diseases of swine constitute a major welfare and health concern in low-input livestock farming. Due to an increase in chemical resistance, phytotherapeutic remedies have become an alternative for the prophylaxis and therapy of digestive parasitosis, albeit few remedies have been subjected to scientific validation. Low-input swine farming in Romania has adopted the traditional use of phytotherapy for controlling pathogens in livestock.

The Effects of L. and L. against Gastrointestinal Parasites in Swine: An In Vivo Study.

Parasitic diseases are responsible for substantial losses in reproduction and productivity in swine, creating a major impairment to efficient and profitable livestock management. The use of phytotherapeutic remedies has notably increased over the past decade due to their bioavailability, decreased toxicity, non-polluting nature, and to some extent due to their antiparasitic effect. The aim of this study was to evaluate the antiparasitic potential of L.

The In Vitro Anticoccidial Activity of Some Herbal Extracts against spp. Oocysts Isolated from Piglets.

Coccidiosis in pigs seldom results in important economic losses. However, it can influence growth rates in weaners and it is an important hygiene indicator in swine farms. Certain herbs, along with their extracts, have been used over the course of history in traditional medicine.

The Effects of L., L., L., L., L. and L. on the Embryogenesis of Eggs during an In Vitro Experimental Study.

is present in traditionally managed indoor pig herds and in industrialized farms, especially in older fatteners and sows. The increasing resistance to common antihelminthic drugs redirected research towards alternative and traditional therapies, which also include medicinal plants. This study comparatively evaluated the in vitro antiparasitic effects of L.

A review of species infection in wild animals in Romania.

Nematodes of the genus are important zoonotic parasites present throughout Romania. This study aimed to assess the status of in wild animals in Romania over the past 30 years. A literature review of original studies concerning the only two species (out of the four in Europe) of ( and ) confirmed in wildlife from Romania was conducted and corroborated with the results of our original research concerning the topic.

Antiparasitic Action of ATCC 393 and CNCM Strains in CD-1 Mice Experimentally Infected with .

Nematodes of the genus are among the most widespread parasites of domestic and wild omnivores and predatory animals. The present study aimed to evaluate the antiparasitic effect of ATCC 393 (original) and CNCM in CD-1 mice experimentally infected with . Four groups of 20 mice (10 females and 10 males/group) were used, with two control (C) groups and two experimental (E) groups, in which each animal received a daily oral dose of 100 µL of 10 CFU/mL probiotics in Ringer's solution.
