The growth inhibiting effect on a free-living nematode (Rhabditis elongtus) was studied.
The test compounds were dissolved in methanol and test compound solutions of 2000, 1000, 500, 250, 125 and 62.5 .mu.g/ml were prepared. 1 ml of each of these solutions was dripped onto pre-prepared agar in a petri dish (1.5% agar, 10 ml per petri dish) and well dried. 0.5 ml of a suspension of free-living nematodes (about 100 nematodes/ml) was dripped onto each petri dish, and water of the suspension was evaporated by blow-drying. Yeast powder, which is a nutrient source for nematodes, was sprinkled on the agar, and then the petri dishes were covered in parafilm and left to stand at 25.degree. C. for 24 hours. The effect was judged by observing the worms under a microscope and measuring the minimum concentration of test compound with which eliminated motility,

When the compounds of the present invention are used for animals and human being as parasiticides (anthelmintics), it can be administered orally as a liquid drink. The liquid drink is usually solution, suspension or dispersed solution in a suitable non-toxic solvent or water in admixture with suspending agent such as bentonite, wetting agent or excipient, and it generally contains liquid drink or antifoaming agent. The prescription of a liquid drink generally contains 0.01.about.0.5 weight%, preferably 0.01.about.0.1 weight% activated compound. When it is preferably administered orally as a dried solid single dose, capsules, pills, or tablets, which contains the desired amount of activated compound are usually used. These forms of dosage are prepared by homogeneous admixtures of diluent, filler, disintegrator and/or excipient such as dextrine, lactose, talc, magnesium stearate, vegetable rubber. The usage of such single dose prescription can be varied broadly referring to the weight and containing quantity of parasiticides (anthelmintics) depending upon kind of hosts, kind of parasites and weight of hosts which are to be treated.
When it is administered in animal feed, it is used as to disperse homogeneously, or as top dressing, or in the form of pellet. To achieve preferable antiparasitic effect, the activated compound of 0.0001.about.2% is usually contained in feed.
The dosage which was dissolved or dispersed in liquid carrier excipients can be administered to animals parenterally by giving them injections in the anterior stomach, muscle, trachea, or under the skin. The activated compound is mixed with suitable vegetable oil such as peanut oil, cottonseed oil for parenteral administration. These prescriptions generally contain the activated compound of 0.05.about.50 weight%.
It can also be administered locally by mixing in a suitable carrier such as dimethylsulfoxide or hydrocarbon solvent. The prepared pharmaceutical can be used directly on the exterior of animals by spraying or direct injections.
Among the compounds of the invention, compounds which are hardly soluble in water are improved in its absorption characteristics into alimentary canal by various well-known pharmaceutical techniques for improving solubility. The pharmaceutical techniques concerning the matter may include the method for preparing a pharmaceutical composition containing at least one kind of surfactants and/or fats and oils (Japanese Kokai Tokko Koho 4-221312, 5-70366), the method for dispersing a medicine of solid state into an inactive carrier in monomolecular state (Japanese Kokai Tokko Koho 5-262642), and the like.
Concretely the surfactant may include fatty acid esters of glycerine, fatty acid esters of sorbitan, fatty acid esters of polyoxyethylene sorbitan, fatty acid esters of polyoxyethylene glycerine, polyoxyethylene hydrogenated castor oils, fatty acid esters of sucrose, polyoxyethylene polyoxypropylene glycol, polysorbate, and the like. The fat and oil may include soybean oil, tallow, hydrogenated oils, almond oil, olive oil, sesame oil, and the like. The inactive carrier may include low viscosity hydroxypropyl cellulose, and the like.
The most suitable usage amount of the activated compound to achieve the most effective result depends on the kind of animals which are to be treated, and type of parasitic infection and its stage.
It can be achieved by oral administration of the activated compound 0.01.about.100 mg, preferably 0.5.about.50.0 mg per kg of the treated animal.
Such dosage amount is given in a relatively short term of 1.about.5days at once or separately.
