Background: Nanotechnology has the potential to reduce drug dosage while increasing efficacy; thus, the current work intends to synthesize diclazuril nanoemulsion and assess its performance against experimental coccidiosis in broilers.
Methods: Diclazuril nanoemulsion (DZN) was formulated and characterized by zeta seizer and zeta potential. The formulated DZN was evaluated in vivo against Eimeria tenella infected chicks.
Article Synopsis
- * The study tested different commercial acaricides, disinfectants, and natural products for their ability to prevent tick eggs from hatching, finding that certain acaricides like chlorpyrifos and amitraz were particularly effective.
- * In field tests, phoxim showed a 40% effectiveness in preventing hatching of tick eggs, while another acaricide, deltamethrin, was only 8.79% effective, highlighting the potential for specific chemicals and natural products to control tick populations.
Article Synopsis
- * The study tested different concentrations of ivermectin and EOCs on Rhipicephalus annulatus tick isolates, finding that while all EOCs were toxic to the ticks, no true synergistic effect with ivermectin was identified despite some combinations showing increased mortality.
- * The research suggests that combining ivermectin with certain EOCs, especially D-limonene and cinnamaldehyde, could enhance tick control methods, and further research is recommended to assess effectiveness in real-world scenarios.
Article Synopsis
- A study examined the effectiveness of essential oil and carvacrol, a key ingredient in the oil, as eco-friendly solutions to control a problematic pest affecting stored products.
- Carvacrol showed a high repellency rate of 92% and superior fumigant toxicity compared to the essential oil, indicating it’s more effective in pest management.
- Both carvacrol and the essential oil were successful in preventing the development of the pest's offspring, highlighting their potential for sustainable pest control strategies.
Glugea sp. found infecting the liver of the teleost fish Carangoides bajad from the Red Sea, Egypt, is described based on light microscopy and ultrastructural characteristics combined with phylogenetic analyses. This microsporidium forms whitish xenomas up to ~4 mm in size.
