Abstract
The purpose of the research is to determine the efficiency of coccidiostat combined with probiotic for treatment coccidiosis in rabbits in a comparative aspect.
Materials and methods. Rabbits suffering from eimeriosis were treated with coccidiostat and probiotic. The anticoccidial drug of the benzeneacetonitrile group, Diclacox 2.5%, the active ingredient of which is diclazuril, and probiotic Mucinolextra, which is a freeze-dehydrated biomass of Bifidobacterium globosum, Enterococcus faecium, B. subtilis, and B. licheniformis at a concentration of 1010 CFU/g were used as preparations. Feces from the rabbits were examined every 3 days by the Fülleborn method to identify coccidia oocysts and determine the infection intensity and prevalence. On the first and last experiment days, the rabbits were weighed to assess the dynamics of live weight. The experiment duration was 15 days.
Results and discussion. Coccidiostat Diclacox 2.5% combined with probiotic Mucinol-extra proved to be highly effective against coccidiosis in rabbits.
