Abstract

The acaricide efficacy, tolerability and safety of the active ingredient of the etheric oil of cloves eugenol was investigated in the treatment of mange in swine, and the obtained results were compared with the results of acaricide efficacy of the synthetic acaricide permethrin, which has been in use for quite a some time. A single application of permethrin in the form of a 1% solution showed maximum efficacy of 62.5%, and after three applications of 75.0% in the treatment of sarcoptes in swine mange. A single application of eugenol in the form of a 10% solution had maximum efficacy of 75.0%, and applied three times an efficacy of 100% in curbing Sarcoptes scabiei var. suis. A single administration of 20% eugenol solution showed maximum efficacy of 87.5%, and applied three times it was 100% efficient in curbing Sarcoptes scabeiei var. suis. The best efficacy in the treatment of sarcoptes mange in swine was achieved with three applications of eugenol in a concentration of 20%. This maximum effect (100%) was obtained already after the second treatment. Eugenol in a concentration of 10% was safe for local application on skin because it does not cause any undesired reactions, while a 20% concentration caused irritation followed by a passing redness and disquiet in a smaller number of treated animals. The results of comparative investigations of acaricide efficacy of permethrin and eugenol demonstrate that there is resistence in Sarcoptes scabiei var. suis to permethrin. The biocide eugenol can safely be recommended for the treatment of sarcoptes mange in swine.

Introduction

Jednokratno primenjen permetrin u obliku rastvora koncentracije od 1% pokazao je maksimalnu efikasnost od 62,5%, a posle trokratne aplikacije od 75,0% u le~enju sarkoptes {uge svinja. U grupi svinja jednokratno tretiranih rastvorom eugenola u koncentraciji od 10 posto, sedmog dana od tretiranja [37,5] posto svinja je infestirano akarinom Sarcoptes scabiei var. U grupi svinja trokratno tretiranih 10 % eugenolom u vremenskom razmaku od sedam dana, sedmog dana od po~etka ogleda [37,5] posto svinja je bilo infestirano {ugarcem Sarcoptes scabiei var.
