Epidemiology of strongyle nematode infections and first report of benzimidazole resistance in Haemonchus contortus in goats in South Darfur State, Sudan [PDF]
Background Since pastoralists in South Darfur, Sudan, had complained about lack of albendazole (ABZ) efficacy to control nematodes in goats, the frequency of infection with gastrointestinal helminths was studied before in vivo faecal egg count reduction

Dietary supplementation of lemongrass powder (0.50 g per kg metabolic body weight) with a basal diet significantly enhanced lamb daily gain, growth velocity, feed efficiency and nutrient digestibility. It increased serum high‐density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL‐C), albumin and IgG concentrations, while reducing aspartate aminotransferase (AST ...
