Comparative Haematological and Biochemical Effects of Cocktail Vaccine (DHLPPi) and Abrus precatorius Seed Aqueous Extract on Canine Parvoviral Vaccinated and Unvaccinated Nigerian Local Dogs

Abstract: Because of increasing incidence of resistance to infectious microorganisms, immunotherapy has been considered as an alternative/complementary to chemotherapy. More so Abrus precatorius leaf extract has been reported to have immunomodulatory effects in animals. In view of this, comparative haematology and biochemistry of cocktail vaccine (DHLPPi) and Abrus precatorius seed extract (APSE) was studied in rats. Sixteen (16) Nigerian local dogs of both sexes weighing 7. 19 ± 0.46 kg, aged 15.44 ± 0.76 weeks old we… Show more

“…The same dose of the extract and DHLPPi caused hypoalbuminemia and hypoglobulinemia and decreased total albuminglobulin ratio. Hence the two could be used in prevention of chronic viral infection in dogs [13], signifying that erythrocytes have relationship with plasma proteins and may be used to determine immune status of animals. Methanol and ethanol seed extract of Abrus precatorius decreased erythrocytes from 9.60 AE 1.02 to 7.13 AE 0.34 Â 10 6 =μl and 6.37 AE 0.60 Â 10 6 =μl, respectively [14], indicating that the plant has anti-erythrocytic principle.…”
