Résumé:
Gastrointestinal parasites are a limiting factor in the production of quails, since
causes numerous damages to the producer by reducing weight gain, egg size,
between others. The control done with the chemical products brings many problems for the
animals, the main one being microbial resistance. As a result, research
is increasing day by day in this area, aiming to discover new viable ways of
control this problem, the use of medicinal plants being one of them. The gift
The aim of this study was to evaluate the anthelmintic efficiency "in vitro" of extracts of pomegranate (Punica granatum L.) and silk flower (Calotropis procera S W.) on eggs of
quail gastrointestinal nematodes. The eggs were obtained through the technique of
Girão & Ueno (1985), where 2.5 ml of the suspension containing the eggs were placed and
2.5 ml of the extract, at 50% concentrations; 25%; 12.5%; 6.25% and 3.12%. the readings
were performed in 24; 48 and 72 hours. The aqueous extract of Punica granatum at 50% and
25% showed a better action on the hatching of nematode eggs
gastrointestinal tracts of naturally infected Japanese quails. The aqueous extract of
Calotropis procera at 50%, at 24 and 72 hours showed a relevant action on the hatching of the
eggs of the same species, with the aqueous extract of Punica granatum being more efficient.
