Overview

Evaluates levamisole efficacy against gastrointestinal nematodes in livestock, suggesting caution with current treatments.

Key Points

  • This research aims to evaluate the effectiveness of levamisole against gastrointestinal nematodes in livestock populations in South Darfur.
  • Conducted faecal egg count reduction tests (FECRTs) and coprocultures.
  • Administered various doses of levamisole to cattle, sheep, and goats.
  • Evaluated the efficacy in naturally and experimentally infected animals.
  • Analyzed data using parametric and non-parametric models.
  • Levamisole was effective against GINs in cattle but resistant in sheep and goats.
  • Significant host species and sex factors influenced resistance outcomes.
  • Discrepancies in resistance classifications were noted in some regions.
  • Mild cholinergic toxicity occurred in some animals receiving higher doses.
