Abstract
In a controlled test involving 7 treated and 6 untreated 5-month old lambs, bepehenium embonate (benzyldimethyl-(B-phenoxyethyl) ammonium embonate) administered orally at a dosage of 250 mg/kg was found to have the following efficacy in removing gastrointestinal nematodes: Haemonchus contortus, 63% Ostertagia circumcincta, 15%, Marshallagia marshalli, 77%, Trichostrongylus axei, 75%, Nematodirus spathiger, 98%, N. filicollis, 100%, T. colubriformis, 19%. The drug had no effect against the free-living stages of N. spathiger in vitro.
