“…Similarly, the EAECPL showed larvicidal effect (EC50 = 0.22 mg/ml) superior to the other extracts, dichloromethane and aqueous extracts of Musa paradisiaca leaves (EC50 = 0.37 and 0.36 mg/mL, respectively) (Marie-Magdeleine et al, 2014). Further studies are needed to elucidate the mechanism of inhibition of hatching and development larvae of the EAECPL constituents.…”

“…Gastrointestinal nematodes (GIN) infections, especially Haemonchus contortus, have been considered the main problem of health and welfare for small ruminants, which result in increased mortality rate and poor production (Marie-Magdeleine et al, 2014). GIN control programs have been carried out through synthetic anthelmintic, however its continued use has favored the development of resistance in target species, therefore encouraging the search for control alternatives (Brunet et al, 2011).…”

“…In recent years, studies involving plants have stood out among the lines of research that seek alternative methods to control ruminant parasites. These studies have revealed promising anthelmintic activity on gastrointestinal parasites of sheep (CAMURCA-VASCONCELOS et al, 2007;YOSHIHARA et al, 2014;RIBEIRO et al, 2014;MARIE-MAGDELEINE et al, 2014;MACEDO et al, 2015).…”

Gastrointestinal Nematode Infection (GIN) are the main constraint to the production of small ruminants. Studies of medicinal plants have been an important alternative in the effort to control these parasites. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to evaluate the in vitro ovicidal and larvicidal activity of essential oil of Rosmarinus officinalis. The oil was extracted, analyzed by gas chromatography and tested on GIN eggs and larvae in six concentrations, 227.5mg/mL, 113.7mg/mL, 56.8mg/mL, 28.4mg/mL, 14.2mg/mL and 7.1mg/mL. To determine the ovicidal activity, GIN eggs were recovered from sheep feces and incubated for 48h with different concentrations of the oil. For the evaluation of larval migration, third-stage larvae (L3) were obtained by fecal culture, and associated with the essential oil for 24h at the same concentrations, after which they were left for another 24 hours on microsieves, followed by the count of migrating and non-migrating larvae. The assays of R. officinalis oil showed a significant (p<0.05) 97.4% to 100% inhibition of egg hatching and a significant (p<0.05) 20% to 74% inhibition of larval migration. The main constituent revealed by gas chromatography was Eucalyptol. The results indicate that R. officinalis essential oil has ovicidal and larvicidal activity on sheep GINs.

“…The anthelmintic properties of the plants are generally related to the presence of phytoconstituents such as tannins, flavonoids and saponins, which are present in larger amounts than other components. Some authors report that the activity observed in these plants may be related to the existence of synergism between tannins and saponins (HERNÁNDEZ-VILLEGAS et al, 2011;MARIE-MAGDELEINE et al, 2014;MENGISTU et al, 2017).…”

Gastrointestinal nematodes can affect sheep productivity via severe weight loss, anemia and death. Infection control is generally performed with synthetic anthelmintic compounds; however, indiscriminate use of these drugs can stimulate the emergence of resistant nematodes. Thus, alternatives to the use of synthetic anthelmintic compounds have been proposed, such as the inclusion of medicinal plants in animal feed. The objective of this study was evaluate the anthelmintic activity of the leaves of the medicinal plant Psidium cattleianum Sabine (Araçá) through its hydroalcoholic extract, and using in vitro assays with the eggs and larvae of gastrointestinal nematodes obtained from naturally infected donor sheep. The extract exhibited good in vitro ovicidal and larvicidal activity, with IC 50 values of 0.55 mg mL-1 for egg hatching inhibition, 0.20 mg mL-1 for larval development inhibition and an efficiency greater than 80% in the inhibition of larval migration at all concentrations evaluated (IC 50 < 0.19 mg/mL). Phytochemical analysis detected higher concentrations of saponins, flavonoids, cardiac glycosides, anthraquinones and tannins in the extract. Our results demonstrated that the Psidium cattleianum Sabine's leaves exhibit in vitro anthelmintic activity, which suggests that in addition to its other medicinal properties, this plant can help control gastrointestinal nematodes in sheep. Future in vivo assays should be performed to confirm antiparasitic efficacy.
