چکیده
|
A total of 310 blood smears were collected from sheep of the livestock experiment station,qadirabad,sahiwal district,pakistan,and surrounding areas. the samples were examined microscopically and 30 (9.67%) were positive for babesiosis. the animals were divided into two groups (a and b) for chemotherapy. group a sheep were treated with diminazene diaceturate while group b animals received imidocarb dipropionate. drug efficacy was determined by negative blood smear examination. diminazene diaceturate effectiveness against babesiosis was 80% while that of imidocarb dipropionate was 100%. hematological studies revealed a significant decrease in hemoglobin concentrations and hematocrit values for babesia-positive animals compared to healthy controls. © cevap 2010.
