A severe outbreak of Trichuris suis infection in piglets is described. Fifteen per cent of the animals died and the morbidity, characterised by weight loss and diarrhoea, was over 50 per cent. The severity of symptoms observed in naturally infected pigs was related to the number of whipworms. A chemotherapeutic trial was worked out with flubendazole mixed in food for naturally infected and artificially infected piglets. Flubendazole at 30 ppm for five consecutive days controlled the infection in the pigs. Immature T suis in artificially infected pigs were also controlled at the same dose administered for 10 consecutive days.
描述了仔猪严重爆发猪鞭虫感染的情况。15%的动物死亡，以体重减轻和腹泻为特征的发病率超过50%。在自然感染猪中观察到的症状严重程度与鞭虫数量有关。针对自然感染和人工感染的仔猪，开展了一项将氟苯达唑混入食物中的化疗试验。连续5天以30 ppm的氟苯达唑可控制猪的感染。对人工感染猪中未成熟的猪鞭虫，连续10天给予相同剂量也可得到控制。
