Prevention and treatment of swine whipworm
Pig whipworm disease is caused by the parasitic nematode parasitic in the pig's large intestine (mainly the cecum), which mainly harms piglets and can cause pig death in severe cases. First, the popular characteristics The adult of the swine worm (Mao worm) is milky white, the front part is slender for the esophageal part, and the back part is short and thick for the body. The whole body shape is like a whip of a sheep, so it is called whipworm. The adult lays eggs in the cecum of the pig. The eggs are excreted with the feces and develop into infected eggs under appropriate conditions. After being swallowed by the pigs, they are dilated and developed in the small intestine of the pigs, and then migrated to the cecum and colon. Under the intestinal mucosa, it develops into adult worms about 30 to 40 days after infection. Second, clinical symptoms The nematode is drilled into the intestinal mucosa with its head, causing inflammation of the cecum and colon, while secreting toxins, causing pig poisoning. Generally, there is no clinical symptoms when infected. In the case of severe infection, there is intestinal catarrhal inflammation, which causes body weight loss and anemia. Excretion of feces, stool sometimes carries blood and mucus, and pigs may be intractable. The lesion can be seen in the cecum with many whipworm parasites. The pig cecum is chronic mucosal inflammation. Third, diagnosis The eggs are examined by feces, and the brown-colored flagellate eggs are embolized at both ends of the lumbar drum. When the autopsy is performed, the whipworm can be detected in the cecum to make a diagnosis. Fourth, treatment The following drugs can be used: albendazole or levamisole, at a dose of 10 to 15 mg / kg body weight, orally. Ivermectin can also be used at a dose of 0.2 mg/kg body weight for intramuscular injection. Fifth, prevention The disease should be done clean and hygienic, and the feces should be treated with thermal fermentation. Pig houses, feeding troughs and sports fields should be disinfected regularly, and regular prevention and deworming should be carried out on pigs. The above is the technology of prevention and control of swine whipworm disease, for your reference, and hope to help you. Huinong School has more relevant agricultural technology knowledge.
