Previous issue date: 2007-02-01 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior - CAPES / This study was performed with the aim of to evaluate the “in vitro” acaricidal activity of the oil of the seed of andiroba against Boophilus microplus, Rhipicephalus sanguineus and Anocentor nitens; the biological activity of the third stage larvae (L3) of Musca domestica and the activity of the oil of the seed of andiroba on the larval culture of gastrointestinal nematodes of goat and sheep. The acaricidal activity in the related species of tick was carried by means of the engorged females immersion test, using groups of 10 engorged females with three repetitions for treatment; for the test with the third stage larvae (L3) of Musca domestica it had been formed four repetitions with 10 larvae for treatment. Strips of filter paper measuring 8.5 x 1.5cm (L x W) were soaked in 0.3ml of the solutions and controls, and next, they were introduced in test tubes, adding 1.30g of vermiculite, being the tubes closed with absorbent cotton. Daily observations were made for detection of mortality of larvae, formation of pupae and adults emergence. The activity of the oil of andiroba on larval culture of gastrointestinalnematodes was determined by the calculation of the percentages of reduction of infective larvae for gram of faeces, using three repetitions. For each experiment it had been used dilutions of 100%, 50%, 30%, 25% and 10% (T1, T2, T3, T4 and T5 respectively) of the oil of the seed of andiroba, using tween 80 as detergent. Two groups had been formed as controls, one with deionized water and another one with tween 80 + deionized water. For the test of reduction of gastrointestinal infective larvae of nematodes, another group was added as positive control (doramectina). The results showed effectiveness of 100% for all the dilutions tested in the three species of ticks. In the test with L3 of de M. domestica, eight days after the accomplishment of the test, it was observed in the 100% concentration 20.0% of larval mortality and 62.5% of inhibition of emergency of adults, values significantly higher than those got in the other treated groups.In the test of reduction of gastrointestinal infective larvae of nematodes, effective reduction (> 90%) was obtained for 100%, 50% and 30% treatments in goat, and for all the treatments for sheep. / Avaliou-se “in vitro” a atividade acaricida do óleo da semente da andiroba contra Boophilus microplus, Rhipicephalus sanguineus e Anocentor nitens; a atividade biológica do óleo da semente de andiroba em larvas de terceiro estágio (L3) de Musca domestica e a atividade do óleo da semente da andiroba sobre o cultivo de larvas de nematóides gastrintestinais caprinos e ovinos. A atividade acaricida nas referidas espécies de carrapatos foi realizada por meio do teste de imersão de fêmeas ingurgitadas, utilizando-se grupos de 10 fêmeas ingurgitadas com três repetições por tratamento; para o teste com L3 de Musca domestica quatro repetições compostas por 10 larvas de terceiro estágio foram formadas. Tiras de papel filtro medindo 8,5 x 1,5cm (C x L) foram embebidas em 0,3ml das soluções do óleo de andiroba e controles, em seguida, colocadas dentro de tubos de ensaio, acrescentando-se 1,30g de vermiculita, introduzindo-se, então, as 10 larvas e vedando-se com algodão hidrófilo. Fez-se observação diária para detecção de mortalidade de larvas, pupação e emergência de adultos. A atividadedo óleo de andiroba sobre cultivos de L3 de nematóides gastrintestinais foi determinada pelo cálculo dos percentuais de redução de larvas infectantes por gramas de fezes (LPG), utilizando-se três repetições. Para cada experimento empregaram-se diluições de 100%, 50%, 30%, 25% e 10% (T1, T2, T3, T4 e T5 respectivamente) do óleo da semente de andiroba, utilizando-se tween 80 como dispersante. Formaram-se dois grupos controle, um com água destilada e outro com tween 80 + água destilada. Para o teste de redução de larvas infectantes de nematóides gastrintestinais, acrescentou-se um grupo controle positivo (doramectina). Os resultados revelaram eficácia de 100% para todas as diluições testadas nas três espécies de carrapatos. No teste com L3 de Musca domestica, após oito dias da realização do teste, na concentração de 100% obteve-se 20,0% de mortalidade larval e 62,5% de inibição de emergência de adultos, valoressignificativamente superiores aos obtidos nos demais tratamentos. No teste de redução do LPG de nematóides gastrintestinais, os resultados revelaram redução altamente efetiva (> 90%) no número de larvas totais para os tratamentos 100%, 50% e 30% em caprinos e em todos os tratamentos para a espécie ovina.

Undersökning av parasitförekomst hos grisar hållna under ekologiska eller KRAV-förhållanden i Sverige / Investigation of parasite occurrence in pigs kept under organic or KRAV conditions in SwedenSaarsoo, Elisabeth January 2020 (has links)
The pig production in Sweden is divided into conventional and organic production, with the organic production divided into EU organic and KRAV production. Pigs are divided into different age categories: weaned pigs, growing pigs, fattening pigs, gilts/sows before farrowing and dry sows. Roundworm, nodular worm, whipworm, coccidia, red stomach worm, threadworm and lungworm are common parasites in pigs affecting growth, feed conversion and economy. Organic pigs are more exposed to parasites because of outdoor stay and deworming could help if used with care. The aim of this project was to investigate parasites in pig herds with organic production. The investigation would increase the knowledge of parasites in different age categories in currently used production systems and contribute to good recommendations about parasite control and treatment. A modified McMaster technique was used to identify and quantify parasite eggs with microscope. Larval culturing and microscopy were used to distinguish eggs from nodular worm and red stomach worm. Roundworm, nodular worm, whipworm and coccidia were found in all age categories. Threadworm was only identified in dry sows and gilts/sows before farrowing. Nodular worm and coccidia showed highest quantity of positive samples at herd and sample level followed by roundworm and whipworm. Roundworm and nodular worm had highest quantity of eggs per gram faeces followed by whipworm and threadworm. The results corresponded to previous studies in parasite occurrence despite new conditions. More samples, herds and environmental factors should be investigated in conjunction with parasite occurrence to get broader knowledge and to give good recommendations in parasite control and treatment.

The dual role of Haemonchus contortus ABC transporters in macrocyclic lactone resistance and their extrusion activity on the parasite's lipidomicsRezanezhad Dizaji, Behrouz 07 1900 (has links)
La résistance aux lactones macrocycliques (LM) constitue une préoccupation croissante dans le contrôle des nématodes parasitaires, notamment l'Haemonchus contortus chez les ruminants. Parmi les mécanismes étudiés dans la résistance aux LM chez les nématodes d’importance en santé animale, il y a les pompes ABC, principalement les glycoprotéines-p, connues pour leur rôle dans la détoxification des LM chez les strongles. Il n'existe toutefois aucune étude sur l'extrusion des lipides par les pompes ABC en tant que produits excrétoires/sécrétoires provenant d'H. contortus (Hc-PES). Nous émettons l’hypothèse que les pompes ABC chez H. contortus sont à la fois impliquées dans l’extrusion de LM (contribuant à la résistance aux antihelminthiques) et dans l’efflux de lipides secrétés par le parasite. Notre objectif était de caractériser le rôle des pompes ABC chez H. contortus dans le contexte de la résistance aux LM et de l'extrusion des lipides. L'efficacité de l'ivermectine, un membre de LM, a été évaluée dans 8 fermes étudiées par un test de réduction de la numération des œufs dans les selles (TRNOS). Les niveaux d'expression des pompes ABC ont été évalués dans des isolats de champ d’H. contortus avec des résultats TRNOS faibles (présumé souches résistantes). D’ailleurs, des vers adultes d’H. contortus ont été incubés avec trois inhibiteurs de pompes ABC, dont le Fumitremorgin C, le Kétoconazole et le Mk-571 à concentrations différentes. Les lipides ont été identifiés par CL/SM dans les milieux de culture récupérés à 2 h, à 4 h et à 8 h après l'incubation d’H. contortus dans les groupes contrôle et traités. L'expression des gènes Hco-pgp-2 et Hco-pgp-3 était augmentée chez les isolats de champ d’H. contortus. Nous avons identifié 1045 lipides appartenant à diverses catégories. L'extrusion des lipides en Hc-PES a changé en présence d'inhibiteurs de pompes ABC, en particulier pour les lipides composés de structures correspondant à celles pour le transport par les pompes ABC. Nous avons donc conclu que les pompes ABC chez H. contortus représentent un système de multi-extrusion et sont impliquées dans la sécrétion de lipides avec importance dans l’interaction avec l’hôte, mais aussi dans la résistance aux LM chez le nématode. / Macrocyclic lactones (MLs) resistance is a growing concern in controlling parasitic nematodes, particularly Haemonchus contortus in the ruminants’ industry. ABC transporters are known to participate in translocating various lipophilic molecules, including MLs and lipids. Some ABC transporters, mostly P-glycoproteins are known to be involved in MLs detoxification in parasitic nematodes; but there is no data about extrusion of lipids by ABC transporters as Excretory/Secretory Products in H. contortus (Hc-ESP). We hypothesize that ABC transporters in H. contortus have a dual role participating in the efflux of MLs, thus contributing to anthelmintic resistance, and in the extrusion of lipids out of the parasite. This study aimed to characterize the role of H. contortus ABC transporters in the context of ML resistance and the extrusion of lipids. Ivermectin (a member of MLs) efficacy was evaluated in 8 studied farms by the fecal egg count reduction test (FECRT). The expression levels of ABC transporters were evaluated in field isolates of H. contortus with low FECRT results (suspected of resistance). H. contortus adult worms were incubated with three ABC inhibitors, such as Fumitremorgin C, Ketoconazole and Mk-571 with different concentrations. Lipids were identified by LC/MS in culture media at 2h, 4h and 8h post incubation with H. contortus in control and treated groups. Hco-pgp-2 and Hco-pgp-3 were found upregulated in H. contortus field isolates. We identified 1045 lipid molecules belonging to different categories. Interestingly, the lipid profile in Hc-ESP was altered in the presence of ABC transporter inhibitors, which shows structural features compatible as substrates for nematode transporters’ activity. Therefore, ABC transporters in H. contortus participate in extrusion of lipids and also may help in detoxification of MLs, becoming a multipurpose pumping system involved in ML resistance and secretion of lipids at the interplay with the host and among nematodes.
