EXAMPLE A
In Vivo Nematode Test
Haemonchus Contortus/Sheep
Sheep experimentally infected with Haemonchus contortus were treated after the end of the pre-patency period of the parasites. The active compounds were administered orally (p.o) as pure active compound in gelatin capsules or intravenously (i.v.) as a solution.
The degree of effectiveness is determined by quantitatively counting the worm eggs excreted with the faeces, before and after treatment.
Complete cessation of the excretion of eggs after the treatment means that the worms have been expelled or are so severely damaged that they can no longer produce any eggs (effective dose).
The active substances tested and the active doses (effective dose) are evident from the following table:
