Definition of Trypanosomiasis in Cattle Trypanosomosis is a chronic disease of cattle caused by protozoal species of the genus Trypanosoma Depending on the species of parasite, the organisms are transmitted cyclically by Tsetse flies of the genus Glossina or mechanically by tsetse or other biting flies. The disease is the most economically damaging and widely distributed in dry areas 11/14/2020 4 Signs and Symptoms of Trypanosomiasis in Cattle Intermittent fever Anemia, Weight loss High mortality, especially if there is poor nutrition or other stress factors . 11/14/2020 5 Pharmacological treatment of Trypanosomiasis in Cattle 11/14/2020 6 Activity: Brainstorming What are the prevention measures for Trypanosomiasis in Cattle?? Prevention and Control of Trypanosomiasis in Cattle Detection and treatment of infected animals Prophylactic treatment with Quinapyramine of susceptible animals and protection from biting flies Control of tsetse flies includes Frequent spraying and dipping of animals (mobile targets). Spraying insecticides on fly-breeding areas. Bush clearing and other methods. Insecticides-impregnated screens (fixed targets). Spray mobile target ( eg . Pour-on on cattle). 11/14/2020 8 Key Points African trypanosomiasis in cattle represents a major constraint to agricultural and socio-economic development in vast areas of Africa. The disease is caused principally by three species of trypanosome ( Trypanosoma congolense , T. vivax and T. brucei ) which are transmitted by several species of tsetse flies ( Glossina ). Trypanosomiasis in cattle results in poor productivity and mortality . Infected animals suffer from a severe anemia and there is widespread tissue damage affecting organs such as the heart, skeletal muscles, endocrine system and reproductive tract. There is no vaccine available for bovine trypanosomiasis, and the methods currently employed for control include chemotherapeutic and chemoprophylactic drugs, tsetse eradication or control and the use of trypanotolerant 11/14/2020 9 Evaluation What is Trypanosomiasis in Cattle?

PST 06107 Basic Veterinary Pharmacology Session 22: Pharmacotherapy of Gastrointestinal parasitism and Histomoniasis in Poultry Learning Tasks By the end of this session students are expected to be able to: Define Gastrointestinal parasitism and Histomoniasis in Poultry List signs and symptoms of Gastrointestinal parasitism and Histomoniasis in Poultry Describe pharmacological treatment of Gastrointestinal parasitism and Histomoniasis in Poultry Describe Control and Prevention of Gastrointestinal parasitism and Histomoniasis in Poultry Activity: Buzzing What is gastrointestinal parasitism in Poultry? Definition of Gastrointestinal parasitism and Histomoniasis in Poultry Poultry could be infected with nematode and cestode parasites Among the round worms, Heterakis gallinarum and Syngamus trachea , Ascarids and Capillarids are economically important Raillietina spp Davainea proglottina are important cestodes species of poultry. The worm Syngamus trachea inhabits the trachea and lungs of many domestic and various wild birds Signs and Symptoms of Gastrointestinal parasitism in Poultry Loss of weight Anorexia Reduced growth Reduced egg production Reduced fertility Diarrheal Blood loss Pharmacological Treatment of Gastrointestinal Parasitism in Poultry Piperazine , 50-100 mg/bird q 24 h, or 0.2-0.4% in the feed or at 0.1-0.2% in the drinking water for two consecutive feeds or drinking water for two days and deworm chicken at 4-6 weeks of age; repeat when necessary or after 2-4 weeks, plus Phenothiazine (for cecal worms in chickens) 0.5 g/bird individual treatment or in dry or wet mash feed, once month to control ascaris , or Phenothiazine 0.5 gm /head or combined with piperazine (o.5-0.51%& 0.11% in drinking water) as a 1-day treatment, removes both heterakids and ascarids , or Coumaphos , 0.004% in feed for 10-14 days for replacements, or 0.003% in feed for 14 days for layers, is used against capillarids Activity: Brainstorming What are the preventive and control measures against gastrointestinal parasitism in Poultry? Prevention and Control of Gastrointestinal Parasitism in Poultry Proper and timely deworming programmed of the local and exotic through appropriate deworming and treatment of infected birds which should be carried out regularly In addition, proper and adequate nutrition would also minimize the incidence rate of helminthosis of domestic birds Key Points Parasitic diseases are problems wherever poultry are raised, and economic losses caused by parasites on poultry can be significant There is a need for effective control measures which can interrupt the lifecycle of parasite Species and as such, increase the meat and egg production Evaluation What is gastrointestinal parasitism in Poultry? What are the common signs and symptoms of gastrointestinal parasitism in Poultry? What is the pharmacological treatment of gastrointestinal parasitism in Poultry? What are the control measures against gastrointestinal parasitism in Poultry? REFER Students to Handout 22.1: For Pharmacotherapy of Histomoniasis in Poultry, References Riviere J. E., Papich M. G.

Pharmacotherapy of Infectious Bursal (Gumboro) Disease in Poultry – PST06107 Basic Veterinary Pharmacology

NTA Level 6 • Semester 1 • PST06107 Pharmacotherapy of Infectious Bursal (Gumboro) Disease in Poultry Basic Veterinary Pharmacology • Source Session/Topic 23 Full source-text version: all educational wording from the extracted learning source is retained; only presenter/tutor metadata and web-layout noise are removed, while formatting is improved for readability. PST 06107 Basic Veterinary Pharmacology Session 23: Pharmacotherapy of Infectious Bursal ( Gumboro ) Disease in Poultry Learning Tasks By the end of this session students are expected to be able to: Define Infectious Bursal ( Gumboro ) Disease in Poultry List signs and symptoms of Infectious Bursal ( Gumboro ) Disease in Poultry Describe pharmacological treatment of Infectious Bursal ( Gumboro ) Disease in Poultry Describe Control and Prevention of Infectious Bursal ( Gumboro ) Disease in Poultry Activity: Buzzing What is Infectious Bursal ( Gumboro ) Disease? ? Definition of Infectious Bursal ( Gumboro ) Disease in Poultry Infectious bursal disease also known as Gumboro disease, is an acute, contagious, viral disease of young chickens characterized by; Diarrhea Vent pecking Trembling Incoordination followed by atrophy of the Bursa of Fabricius and by a variable degree of immune suppression Definition of Infectious Bursal ( Gumboro ) Disease in Poultry Cont.…. The virus, belongs to the Birnaviridae family and is resistant to most disinfectants and environmental factors and persists for months in contaminated house, for weeks in water, feed and droppings The virus is shed in the feces and transferred by fomites (direct and indirect contact) Chickens at 3-6 weeks age are most susceptible and show clinical disease. The diseases is subclinical at younger age Signs and Symptoms of Infectious Bursal ( Gumboro ) Disease in Poultry The clinical signs include blood stained feces and straining Initially necropsy, the bursa may be twice as large as the normal size then it becomes atrophied and reddened haemorrhages may occur in thigh and pectoral muscles Loss of appetite and rapid sudden onset of water consumption may also occurs Watery droppings and ruffled feather may be observed Pharmacological Treatment of Infectious Bursal ( Gumboro ) Disease in Poultry No specific treatment available Drug & to protect from secondary bactiriae invasion may be given such as Chlortetracycline, 3-4 kg/tone of feed, i.e. 20-60 mg/kg 5-7 days Activity: Brainstorming • What are the prevention and control measures for Infectious Bursal ( Gumboro ) Disease ? Prevention and Control of Infectious Bursal ( Gumboro ) Disease in Poultry Depopulation and rigorous disinfection of contaminated farms Live vaccines of chick-embryo or cell-culture origin and of varying virulence can be administered by eye drop, drinking water, or SC routes at 1-21 days of age Vaccination of breeding flocks one or more times during the growing period, first with a live vaccine and again just before egg production with an oil- adjuvanted , inactivated vaccine Key Points Infectious bursal disease (IBD) is seen in domestic chickens worldwide IBD is caused by a birnavirus (infectious bursal disease virus; IBDV) that is most readily isolated from the bursa of Fabricius but may be isolated from other organs Chickens are most susceptible to clinical disease at 3–6 wk of age when immature B cells populate the bursa and maternal immunity has waned There is no treatment. Rigorous disinfection of contaminated farms after depopulation has achieved limited success. Evaluation What is Infectious Bursal ( Gumboro ) Disease?
