Comparison of the effects of Cupric sulfate with Vaseline and Phyto ointment in the treatment of heifer dermatophytosis

Abstract

In recent time the natural drugs returned by synthetic and semi synthetic drugs in human medicine. But in veterinary medicine more than 50 percent of animals treatment done by mineral, organic compounds, medicinal plants and microbial organisms. For example: Na, K, Ca, Alum, Lime, Cupric Sulfate, Acids and Alcohols. In this study 20 heifers (18 – 20 month) selected in two groups with ten members and examined. At first step sampled to identify the type of fungus. In first group used Phyto ointment, in second group Cupric Sulfate with Vaseline. The treatment was done twin per day via superficial ointment. The libratory finding shown Trichophyton Verrucosum were separated from infected area. The usage of Cupric Sulfate and Vaseline in treatment of dermatophytosis was better and faster than Phyto ointment. Heifer treated by Cupric Sulfate with Vaseline and Phyto ointment during 4 and 16 days. The treatment method by Cupric Sulfate with dermatic reaction and a few day later histological repairs was done successfully. Finally sampled and cultured from infected site and Trichophyton Verrucosum was not observed. Therefore the result shown the usage of Cupric Sulfate with Vaseline is better than Phyto ointment because working with heifer is dangerous and have various risk factors.
