Author(s): NG Huilgol, Borikar ST and Swami SB
Abstract: The present study was carried out on twelve (12) pigs naturally suffering from mange and compared to six (6) normal healthy pigs. The pigs were divided into three groups consisting of six pigs in each, viz. group-I, group-II and group-III respectively. The infested animals in group-I and group-II were treated with injections of Doramectin and Ivermectin respectively whereas Group-III comprising of normal healthy pigs was kept as control group throughout the duration of study upto 30th day post treatment. Studies revealed that Hb, PCV, TEC levels showed significantly decreased levels while TLC and eosinophils had significantly higher levels in infested pigs when compared with those of healthy pigs which returned to normal levels after treatment. Biochemical studies revealed significantly elevated serum levels of AST, ALT and Cortisol and lowered levels of Total protein and Albumin in infested pigs when compared with that of healthy pigs which also returned to normal level after treatment.
