Journal Article
Evaluation of a simplified blood pepsinogen assay
TL;DR: Blood pepsinogen concentrations in cattle were determined, using a simple, direct method based on the hydrolysing effect of serum on buffered bovine albumin substrate, using the Folin and Ciocalteu's colorimetric method.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diagnostic value of gastrin for clinical bovine ostertagiosis
TL;DR: The value of gastrin as a diagnostic aid for ostertagiosis is discussed in relation to pepsinogen, the adult worm burden, larval inhibition and the technique involved in assessing gastrin.
Journal ArticleDOI
Field evaluation of an experimental albendazole pulse release bolus in the control of parasitic gastroenteritis in first-season grazing calves.
TL;DR: The E-bolus introduced at the start of the grazing season provided moderate control of gastrointestinal parasitism and was demonstrated by lower strongyle egg counts and significant differences in ELISA extinctions for Ostertagia, Cooperia and Dictyocaulus.
Journal ArticleDOI
Subclinical parasitism in calves: biochemical and serological evaluation of preventive treatment against gastroenteritis and husk.
TL;DR: It was concluded that these parameters are a useful tool in confirming subclinical parasitism and that preventive treatment with the OPRB in a low to moderately infected environment, together with a high plane of nutrition, provided little benefit to the farmer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Morphological changes in Capillaria obsignata (Nematoda: Trichuridae) eggs after treatment with camhendazole
TL;DR: It appears that benzimidazoles have a pronounced ovicidal activity in female trichostrongylids, whereas in Trichuroidae (Trichuris, Capillaria), eggs are often viable but abnormal in size, shape, and color.
