Abstract
Bu çalışma, Psoroptes cuniculi ile doğal enfeste dört tavşanda ivermektinin tedavi ve hasta hayvanlarla temas etmiş 10 tavşanda koruyucu etkinliğini belirlemek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Bu amaçla enfeste ve şüpheli tavşanlara 400 µg/kg dozda, subkutan yolla tek doz ivermektin uygulanmıştır. İlacın etkinliği; iki haftalık süreç boyunca klinik belirtiler, tedavi sonunda canlı etken saptanmaması ve yeni klinik vakaların ortaya çıkmaması esasına göre değerlendirilmiştir. Hasta tavşanların üçünde ilaç uygulamasını takip eden 7. günde klinik iyileşme ve etken eliminasyonu gerçekleşirken, menenjit benzeri semptomlar gösteren bir tavşan ölmüştür. Koruyucu ilaç kullanılan 10 hayvanda yeni klinik vaka görülmemiştir. Sonuç olarak, tavşanlarda tek doz ivermektin uygulamasının psoroptik uyuzu tedavi ettiği ve hasta hayvanlarla teması olan tavşanlarda koruyucu olduğu anlaşılmıştır.
Psoroptes cuniculi for treatment and in 10 rabbits in contact with the infested animals for protection. The efficacy of the drug was evaluated based on the clinical signs, the absence of live mites and new clinical cases during a period of least two weeks. Elimination of clinical signs and mites were seen in three rabbits seven days after the ivermectin injection, but one rabbit, which had meningitis-like signs, died. Also, no new cases occurred in the other ten rabbits. These results suggest that an application of ivermectin can completely eliminate mites from rabbits naturally infested with P. cuniculi and that it was also a sufficient method for protection from contact infestation.
