The objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of dry wormwood and mallow on the gastrointestinal parasite of small ruminants Twenty-four experimentally infected lambs were randomly divided into four groups of six animals each: unsupplemented lambs, lambs supplemented with wormwood, lambs supplemented with mallow and animals supplemented with a mix of both plants. Faecal samples from the lambs were collected on day 23, 29, 36, 43, 50, 57, 64 and 75 post-infection for quantification of the number of eggs per gram (EPG). The mix of both plants contained phenolic acids (10.7 g/kg DM) and flavonoids (5.51 g/kg DM). The nematode eggs were collected and in vitro egg hatch test was performed. The aqueous extracts of both plants exhibited strong ovicidal effect on , with ED50 and ED99 values of 1.40 and 3.76 mg/mL and 2.17 and 5.89 mg/mL, respectively, in the in vitro tests. Despite the great individual differences between the treated lambs in eggs reduction, the mean EPG of the untreated and treated groups did not differ ( > 0.05). Our results indicate that using wormwood and mallow as dietary supplements do not have a sufficient effect on lambs infected with .
本研究的目的是评估干艾草和锦葵对小型反刍动物胃肠道寄生虫的影响。将24只经实验感染的羔羊随机分为四组，每组6只动物：未补充组羔羊、补充艾草的羔羊、补充锦葵的羔羊以及补充两种植物混合物的动物。在感染后第23、29、36、43、50、57、64和75天收集羔羊的粪便样本，用于定量每克粪便中的虫卵数量（EPG）。两种植物的混合物含有酚酸（10.7 g/kg干物质）和黄酮类化合物（5.51 g/kg干物质）。收集线虫卵并进行体外虫卵孵化试验。在体外试验中，两种植物的水提取物对[寄生虫名称未给出]均表现出很强的杀卵作用，ED50和ED99值分别为1.40和3.76 mg/mL以及2.17和5.89 mg/mL。尽管治疗后的羔羊在虫卵减少方面存在很大的个体差异，但未治疗组和治疗组的平均EPG没有差异（P>0.05）。我们的结果表明，将艾草和锦葵用作膳食补充剂对感染[寄生虫名称未给出]的羔羊没有足够的效果。
