The Authors report comparatives efficacy of 3 chemotherapics - two sulphas and toltrazuril - in course of Isospora canariainfection in canaries (Serinus canaria) during breading season. A total of 4 groups were included: group A treated with 2-sulfanylamidoquinoxaline,B with Sulphamethopyrazine - Pyrimethamine, C with toltrazuril and D not treated (control). The parasiticcharge was estimated before the treatment (T0), at the end (T1) and at 7 (T2) and 30 days post treatment (T3). Moreover,Fecal Condition Score (FCS) was evaluated. Isospora canaria was the only coccidian species detected. Toltrazuril displayed thebest efficacy both in terms of parasitic charge and FCS improvement. Basing upon the above reported results and the total absenceof collateral effects during the trial, toltrazuril can be considered an excellent chemotherapic in course of coccidiosisfrom Isospora canaria in the canary.[...]

Abstract
The Authors report comparatives efficacy of 3 chemotherapics - two sulphas and toltrazuril - in course of Isospora canariainfection in canaries (Serinus canaria) during breading season. A total of 4 groups were included: group A treated with 2-sulfanylamidoquinoxaline,B with Sulphamethopyrazine - Pyrimethamine, C with toltrazuril and D not treated (control). The parasiticcharge was estimated before the treatment (T0), at the end (T1) and at 7 (T2) and 30 days post treatment (T3). Moreover,Fecal Condition Score (FCS) was evaluated. Isospora canaria was the only coccidian species detected. Toltrazuril displayed thebest efficacy both in terms of parasitic charge and FCS improvement. Basing upon the above reported results and the total absenceof collateral effects during the trial, toltrazuril can be considered an excellent chemotherapic in course of coccidiosisfrom Isospora canaria in the canary.[...]I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
