Evaluación de diferentes niveles de tierra de diatomeas como antiparasitario en vaconas Fierro.

Abstract

The objective was to evaluate different levels of diatomaceous earth (100, 125 and 150 gr / day) compared to a traditional treatment (albendazole) in the antiparasitic control in iron vaconas. In the Academic and Research Unit Milk Bovine of the Tunshi Experimental Station belonging to the Faculty of Livestock Sciences of the Higher Polytechnic School of Chimborazo. The experimental units were under a completely randomized design using 4 treatments with 4 repetitions with a total of 16 experimental units. The results indicated that for the final weight there were no significant differences (P> 0.01), obtaining an average weight of 352.81 kg; The variable initial parasite load did not present statistical differences (P> 0.01), however, for the final load, the treatments presented lower levels in an average of (8 HPG). In the biochemical parameters when evaluating the initial and final Asparto Aminotransferase they did not present significant differences (P> 0.01); therefore, the diatomaceous earth did not affect, as regards Alanine Aminotransferase, at the beginning it presented highly significant differences (P <0.01); the average of this indicator was 31.91 U / L and at the end, the results did not show significant differences (P> 0.01); The final alkaline phosphatase presented significant differences (P <0.05); The lowest levels were T0 with 169.45 U / L and T3 with 164.77 U / L; and T1 182.80 U / L and T2 180.62 U / L presented values above the mean. This means that albendazole and diatomaceous earth perform the same deworming action in an efficient way. Therefore, the use of organic antiparasitic products is recommended to avoid residuality in the body.
