Abstract Background The present study aimed to evaluate the effects of different treatment strategies using a new commercial formulation containing pour-on fluralaner on Rhipicephalus microplus infestation in cattle and pastures tropical climate region where up five generations this tick species can occur per year. Methods Forty-five naturally infested were divided into three experimental groups: T01, treated with (2.5 mg/kg) every 42 days; T02, received first Day 0 but next involved weekly...

Abstract Background In Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, a region with subtropical climate, Rhipicephalus microplus is present in taurine cattle raised for beef and milk. addition, ticks resistant to multiple acaricides are this region. Recently, fluralaner (isoxazoline) was launched on the market. Thus, there need evaluate effects of control R. cattle. occurrence myiasis by Cochliomyia hominivorax larvae after tick parasitism weight gain during experimental period were evaluated. Methods Thirty...

Abstract Background In 2022, fluralaner was launched on the market for use in control of cattle tick Rhipicephalus microplus after showing 100% efficacy registration trials against causative agents fever (TFAs). The aim present study to determine whether a strategic regimen R. using (FLU) Holstein calves grazing tropical region would alter enzootic stability status fever, triggering outbreaks these animals up 22 months age. Methods this study, group treated with FLU compared currently being...

Zoonoses are diseases that transmissible between animals and humans. This study aimed to evaluate the perception of high school students from private (n=62) public (n=70) schools about prevention control zoonoses through a questionnaire with socioeconomic questions knowledge zoonoses. It was found 98% were 15 18 years old, they lived their families, which mostly made up four seven people. The main activity families commerce, while varied. Dogs animal most mentioned as domestic in residence...

Abstract Background The first isoxazoline-based acaricide (fluralaner) for the control of Rhipicephalus microplus was introduced onto market in 2022, initially Brazil, followed by other Latin American countries . Therefore, it is important to establish laboratory methods monitor susceptibility populations R. this molecule and determine relationship between results tests those from field trials. Methods A larval immersion test (LIT) performed on 18 lethal concentration 50 (concentration...

This study evaluated the repellent activity of DEET, eugenol, methyl 1,8-cineole, and their combinations against Amblyomma sculptum nymphs through laboratory field tests. Initially, botanical compounds were tested individually in Petri dish assays to assess over various intervals (1 min 168 h) at concentrations 2%. Eugenol eugenol exhibited highest average percentages (60 90%), with significant effects (p < 0.05) across most evaluation periods, contrast 1,8-cineole. Therefore, selected...
