Método FAMACHA para detectar anemia clínica causada por Haemonchus contortus em cordeiros lactentes e ovelhas em lactação

Abstract: Resumo: O controle das endoparasitoses gastrintestinais em pequenos ruminantes tem sido tradicionalmente realizado por meio do uso indiscriminado dos anti-helmínticos, porém essa prática tem resultado em grande pressão de seleção de parasitas resistentes. Métodos seletivos (ex: FAMACHA/FMC e contagem de ovos nas fezes/OPG) e que apresentem boa sensibilidade para identificar os animais que necessitam receber o tratamento químico são importantes alternativas aos métodos tradicionais. O objetivo desse trabalho fo… Show more

“…This result was observed particularly in the lambs kept on Marandu and Paiaguás grasses due to the increase in FECs in C2, which did not affect the MCV, FAMACHA © score, BSC or weight gain. Changes in the MCV can be observed in the colour of the ocular conjunctiva in herds with more than 60% of the parasite load attributable to Haemonchus by using the FAMACHA © method [33,34,35]. FAMACHA © is thus an effective and reliable method to be applied in this study since the frequency of Haemonchus spp.…”

“…Cintra et al (2018) reported a low sensitivity of growing lambs to FMC and recommended that it should not be used alone to evaluate young animals. It is known that the small ocular area of young animals makes the FMC evaluations more difficult (Fernandes et al, 2015).…”

“…Animal weight was determinated after a 14-hour solid and liquid fasting, each 21 days, and five evaluations were done during the grazing period. The control of endo-and ectoparasites was performed at the beginning of the experiment and monitored using the Famacha® method (FERNANDES et al 2015). Considering that the stocking rate would differ among the supplementation levels, the size of pasture paddocks varied from 950, 850, 700, and 600 m 2 , respectively, for treatments with 0, 5, 10, and 15 g kg -1 of supplementation.…”
