Outbreak of Philophthalmus gralli in four greater rheas (Rhea americana)

Using slit‐lamp biomicroscopy, conjunctival biopsy, and morphological identification, a flock of four Greater rheas (Rhea americana) in Arizona were diagnosed with conjunctivitis secondary to Philophthalmus gralli (P. gralli) infection. Aquatic snails from the exhibit’s water source were identified as Melanoides tuberculatus, a known vector for P. gralli. Comparison of partial sequences of DNA regions from P. gralli adults removed from the rheas and metacercariae from the aquatic snails demonstrated a 100% match, confirming the source of infection. The flock was divided into two treatment groups: the most severely affected rheas received both manual removal of trematodes and praziquantel 1% ointment OU q12 h and the least severely affected rheas were only given praziquantel 1% ointment OU q12 h. The rheas were permanently relocated away from the infected water source and aquatic snails. Initial resolution was seen at 17 weeks in the most severely affected rhea, which had 675 adult P. gralli removed and topical praziquantel. The two rheas that only received topical praziquantel showed resolution within 3 and 15 weeks. Current recommendations for treating P. gralli include: manual removal of trematodes, topical praziquantel 1% ointment, and relocation away from infected water sources and aquatic snails.     

吡喹酮和硝硫氰醚对日本血吸虫体内5-HT含量的影响

本文研究了吡喹酮和硝硫氰醚与日本血吸虫拟似神经递质 5-羟色胺间的关系。以吡喹酮 ( 5× 1 0 - 7mol/ L和 5× 1 0 - 8mol/ L )、硝硫氰醚 ( 1 0 - 4mol/ L和 1 0 - 5mol/ L )分别培养日本血吸虫成虫 4h和 8h ,反相离子对高效液相法测定其体内 5-HT的含量变化。结果显示 :吡喹酮和硝硫氰醚对日本血吸虫体内 5-HT等含量的影响与对照相比均无显著性差异。表明二者抗虫作用似不通过影响虫体 5-HT的生物合成和降解。     

伊维菌素吡喹酮咀嚼片溶出度方法的建立

为了建立同时测定伊维菌素吡喹酮咀嚼片两种主药溶出度的测定方法,采用高效液相色谱法测定在不同pH值溶出介质、不同浓度表面活性剂和不同转速的条件下伊维菌素吡喹酮咀嚼片两种主药的溶出曲线,确定了伊维菌素吡喹酮咀嚼片的溶出方法。结果显示,三批样品45 min时伊维菌素、吡喹酮两种主药的溶出度均大于85%。建立的溶出度测定方法可用于伊维菌素吡喹酮咀嚼片溶出度的测定。     

兽用吡喹酮-聚乳酸-羟基乙酸缓释植入棒含量测定及释放度考察

建立了吡喹酮-聚乳酸-羟基乙酸（吡喹酮-PLGA）缓释植入棒含量测定的HPLC法,并对其释放度进行了考察。以甲醇-水（100：40,V／V）为流动相,采用GraceC18反相色谱柱（4．6mm250mm,5μm）,流速1．0mL／min,紫外检测波长263nm,在此试验条件下,吡喹酮在10—200μg／mL范围内与峰面积线性关系良好,r=0．9999;平均回收率为99．48％,RSD为0．53％（n=9）。三批样品的含量分别为98．96％、98．67％和98．81％,该方法简单、快捷、辅料无干扰、准确度高,适于吡喹酮-PLGA植入棒的含量测定。吡喹酮-PLGA植入棒以骨架溶蚀释放机制缓慢释放,释药期可达三周,释放度高于300μg／d。

Clinical Therapeutic Effect of Praziquantel Injection on Buffalo Schistosomiasis

To observe the clinical therapeutic effect of 30% praziquantel injection on buffalo schistosomiasis, the sick buffalos naturally infected with Schistosoma japonicum were selected by miracidium hatching method. In experimental clinical trials, sick buffalos were randomly divided into five groups, high-dose (20 mg/kg), middle-dose (10 mg/kg) and low-dose (5 mg/kg) praziquantel injection groups, praziquantel tablet group (30 mg/kg) and positive control group. After the treatment of 30 d, the negative conversion rate of miracidium were 100.0%, 100.0%, 77.8% and 85.7%, respectively, in praziquantel injection groups with the high, middle and low dose and oral medication group. In expanded clinical trials, the sick buffalos were randomly divided into two groups, praziquantel injection group (10 mg/kg, i.m.) and praziquantel tablet group (30 mg/kg). The results showed that, the negative conversion rate of miracidium were all 100% in the former 52 patients and the latter 6 patients after 30 d. The research confirmed that praziquantel injection was significantly effective in the treatment of buffalo schistosomiasis and convenient for administration. It was concluded that 30% praziquantel injection could replace the traditional oral praziquantel tablet for the treatment of buffalo schistosomiasis, and the recommended dose was 10 mg/kg.     

吡喹酮对鲤鱼感染台湾棘带吸虫后期囊幼虫的防治效果

[目的]探讨3种不同药物处理方式对台湾棘带吸虫引起的鲤鱼幼鱼急性鱼鳃传染病(开放性鳃病)的防治效果.[方法]在试验初期,将1620条鲤鱼幼鱼(70日龄)鱼鳃自然感染台湾棘带吸虫,随后分成4组,分别采用CuSO4、福尔马林和吡喹酮不同方式处理6周,与对照(自然喂食、不使用任何化学药剂)比较防治鲤鱼幼鱼急性鳃传染病的效果.[结果]感染台湾棘带吸虫的幼鱼生长缓慢,其身长和体重增长均较慢.施药后,幼鱼台湾棘带吸虫后期囊幼虫感染强度减少.在每千克饲料中分别添加50和75 mg吡喹酮喂食幼鱼5d,可以杀死鱼鳃中所有的台湾棘带吸虫后期囊幼虫,且鱼鳃恢复正常;面使用25 mg吡喹酮,仅有35%的后期囊幼虫死亡.所有不同浓度CuSO4处理(0.3、0.4和0.5mg/kg冲洗浸泡24 h及以3.0、4.0和5.0 mg/kg冲洗浸泡10m)和福尔马林处理(20、25和30 mg/kg冲洗浸泡及200、250和300 mg/kg短时间冲洗浸泡)均不能杀死台湾棘带吸虫后期囊幼虫.[结论]经普通化学药剂CuSO4或福尔马林冲洗浸泡,不能防治由台湾棘带吸虫后期囊幼虫引起的鲤鱼开放性鳃病,但50~75 mg吡喹酮/kg饲料可以在5d内治疗该病.     

Efficacy of bath and orally administered praziquantel and fenbendazole against Lepidotrema bidyana Murray,a monogenean parasite of silver perch,Bidyanus bidyanus (Mitchell)

We investigated the efficacy of praziquantel (PZQ) and fenbendazole (FBZ), each administered by bath and orally, against the monogenean Lepidotrema bidyana Murray, a gill parasite of the freshwater fish silver perch, Bidyanus bidyanus (Mitchell). PZQ and FBZ were each administered by bath at 10 mg L^?1 for 48 h and on surface‐coated feed pellets at 75 mg kg^?1 per body weight (BW) per day for 6 days. Bath treatments of PZQ and FBZ had an efficacy of 99% and 91%, respectively, against adult L. bidyana. Oral treatments of PZQ and FBZ had an efficacy of 79% and 95%, respectively, against adult L. bidyana. Fish rejected feed pellets surface‐coated with PZQ, suggesting that palatability of surface‐coated PZQ‐medicated feed is poor, which undermined efficacy. In all trials, some juvenile parasites were present on fish after treatment during efficacy assessment, indicating that efficacy may be lower against juvenile parasites or that recruitment occurred post‐treatment, demonstrating that repeat treatments are necessary to effectively control L. bidyana in aquaculture.
