The venous blood of 20 rabbits aged 1 year was taken to perform biochemical and general blood tests, for which purpose hematological analyzers were used.

For pathomorphological examination, liver, spleen, lung, and kidney samples were taken. To determine the histological pattern, paraffin-embedded samples on Thermo Scientific semi-automatic equipment were used. Histologic specimens were stained with hematoxylin and eosin. The histoarchitecture of the specimens was evaluated using an Axio A1.0 microscope, and photography was conducted with the AxioVision software.Results and discussion. The article presents the data of the general and biochemical blood tests of the blood from the rabbits intended to be used in the experiment. Further, the pathoanatomical picture of the liver was shown in animals infected with Eimeria spp., and the histological pattern was presented for parenchymal organs. We found that the main biochemical values that exceeded reference values were liver values, namely, aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase. We also observed an increase in monocytes and granulocytes in the blood. Pathological and anatomical changes were only expressed in the liver, while no changes in the macro pattern were observed in other organs. Histological examination of parenchymal organs showed a significant pathology in the liver due to endogenous stages of oocysts occurred in its structure. Additionally, we observed a strong eosinophil response in the spleen and a high content of eosinophils in the pulmonary veins.","PeriodicalId":34353,"journal":{"name":"Rossiiskii parazitologicheskii zhurnal","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41356530","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For the experiment, 18 broiler chickens aged 28 days were selected. The birds were kept in the conditions of the Podolsk Experimental Production Department of the VNIIP – FSC VIEV. Iverbutan contains 0.4% of ivermectin and 10.0% of butaphosphan as active substances. The drug was administered orally by the group method at the rate of 1.0 mL of Iverbutan per 1 Liter of drinking water. Iverbutan was given three times: twice with a 24-hour interval and once after 14 days. The birds were killed and samples of their organs and tissues were taken at 9, 14, and 19 days after the drug was administered three times. Organs and tissues of each following type were collected from 6 birds: muscles, liver, kidneys, and skin with subcutaneous adipose tissue. The technique was based on the determination of Ivermectin by high performance liquid chromatography with modified pre-column accomplished with N-methylimidazole and trifluoroacetic anhydride, followed by fluorescence detection. The quantification was performed by the internal standardization.Results and discussion. The period was studied for elimination of Ivermectin residuals from the chickens’ body after the drug was administered three times. The residuals that exceed the maximum allowable levels were determined at 9 and 14 days after the drug was completed. It was found that the chickens’ organs and tissues did not contain Ivermectin at 19 days.

A review of the world literature on the resistance of horse nematodes to anthelmintic drugs is carried out.Results and discussion. Currently, veterinary parasitology is faced with the growing problem of the emergence of resistant races of helminths, against which previously tested anthelmintic drugs in recommended doses are ineffective. This phenomenon has been noted in many animal species and manifests itself in relation to many drugs of the main groups of anthelmintics. This is evidenced by numerous reports. In horse breeding, benzimidazoles have been used for over 40 years, leading to widespread resistance to them in intestinal nematodes. There is a loss or weakening of the effectiveness of treatment of nematodes of horses with anthelmintic drugs: thiabendazole, pyrantel pamoat, drugs from the benzimidazole groups and macrocyclic lactones. There is no doubt that a similar situation of the spread of resistant races of helminths is also typical for Russia, since here the same anthelmintic drugs are used for treatment as abroad. However, this problem in our country remains practically unexplored. In this situation, the uncontrolled use of anthelmintics, which does not take into account the possibility of resistance to them, inevitably leads (and possibly in some cases has already led) to the emergence and spread of resistant populations of helminths, against which existing drugs will be ineffective.","PeriodicalId":34353,"journal":{"name":"Rossiiskii parazitologicheskii zhurnal","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46067088","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The work was carried out in October-November 2021 in the conditions of farms in the Ipatovsky district of the Stavropol Territory on cattle aged 9–12 months and 90–120 kg of body weight. During the veterinary clinical examination, four groups of fve heads each were formed, one of the groups was a control. Animals of the control group had no clinical signs of dermatitis. The experimental groups of animals were divided depending on the degree of intensity of skin lesions into mild, moderate and generalized forms of manifestation of dermatitis. The results obtained were processed statistically.Results and discussion. A veterinary clinical examination of this livestock made it possible to establish the dependence in case of damage to the skin not only in changes in temperature, respiratory rate and pulse, but also in blood parameters. The body temperature of calves with a generalized form of dermatitis increased by an average of 0.5 degrees, breathing increased by six units per minute, the pulse rate increased by 15–18 beats per minute. In calves with mild and moderate manifestation of dermatitis, these parameters did not have signifcant changes and were within the normal range. From hematological indicators, hemoglobin had a general tendency to decrease with increasing intensity of the lesion or aggravation of the pathological process. Such indicators as ESR, leukocytes, neutrophils, eosinophils, on the contrary, tended to increase, especially in the generalized form. The slowdown of erythropoiesis and thrombocytopenia in the generalized form of dermatitis is presumably associated with intoxication of the body of calves. An increase in ESR, the number of eosinophils indicates an inflammatory process occurring in the animal's body. From biochemical indicators, an increase in the level of bilirubin, AST and ALT, creatinine, alkaline phosphatase indicates toxic liver damage due to intoxication of the body of calves due to inflammatory factors and decay products of affected skin cells.","PeriodicalId":34353,"journal":{"name":"Rossiiskii parazitologicheskii zhurnal","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48976561","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
