THERAPEUTIC AND PREVENTIVE EFFICIENCY OF BIOLOGICALLY ACTIVE MEDICATIONS FROM JUVENILE DRONE PHASE AT BALANTIDIOSE OF PIGS
The study was undertaken to establish the efficacy of lyophilized medication from juvenile drone phase (LMJD) for the treatment and prevention of Balantidiose of pigs. It was determined, that LMJD, diluted by distilled water 1:10 in dose 4 ml/kg which was given to piglets, suffering from Balantidiose, during 20-day course and Metronid-50, which was given according to the usual method, promoted complete recovery from disease and increase of body weight of piglets for 3,2 kg as compared with control group. LMJD, which was given to piglets during 30-day course in the period of weaning, in dose 1 ml/kg of body weight, appeared to be highly effective remedy in prevention of Balantidiose. As the result of its application biochemical indices in serum normalized: the content of serum protein increased by 6,7-6,9%, calcium - by 33%, phosphorus - by 9%.
