efficacy of ivermectin against live mites and eggs of sarcoptes scabiei in pigs.sows infested with sarcoptes scabiei var. suis (ssvs) were treated with 75, 150 and 300 micrograms/kg of ivermectin by a single subcutaneous injection at the neck region. compared to the numbers of mites and eggs just before injection, those on post treatment weeks (ptw) 1, 2 and 4 showed significant decreases. especially at 300 micrograms/kg, the counts showed almost all mites and eggs were eradicated on ptw 1, manifesting ivermectin to possess potential effect on ssve without apparent abnormal ...19892514317
sarcoptes scabiei infestation in a cat.sarcoptes scabiei infestation was diagnosed in a cat. clinical signs included thick, crusty, exudative dermatitis on the feet, caudal aspect of the thighs, and tail. paronychia and dystrophic nails also were observed. the course of the disease was chronic. concomitant and potentially predisposing additional health problems were suspected, but were not confirmed.19873112050
norwegian scabies in australian aborigines.norwegian scabies is a rare, but distinctive, variant of scabies. the infestation by the parasite is massive, and the lesions consist of hyperkeratotic plaques affecting the skin of the whole body. predisposition to this form of scabies occurs in association with a variety of conditions. three cases of norwegian scabies, which occurred in full-blood australian aborigines, and were managed in the royal darwin hospital, are reported.19853917531
[the seasonality of scabies morbidity and the fertility of the itch mite sarcoptes scabiei de geer as an index of the activity of a population of the causative agent].the authors analyze the features of the epidemic process in scabies and review foreign and soviet literature on the seasonal pattern of this condition. they have introduced the mite fertility index, that is determined by the number of eggs in the mite burrow, counted with the use of a new laboratory diagnostic technique with lactic acid. the studies have revealed that this index is high in september-december (11.5 +/- 1.0 - 12.6 +/- 1.3) and much lower in january-july (8.9 +/- 1.1 - 6.0 +/- 0.6) ...19892515675
scanning electron microscopy of sarcoptic mange lesions in swine.scanning electron microscopy revealed that lesions of sarcoptic mange in swine, pass through 3 different stages. during the first 3 weeks of infestation, adult female mites tunnel into the epidermis. during the following 3 or 4 weeks, the surface openings of these tunnels become covered with keratinized epidermal crust which increases in thickness. after 7 weeks of infestation, the crust falls off, the tunnel openings become apparent again and most of the mites vacate these tunnels.19892527435

mite infestations of man contracted from dogs and cats.acarine infestations of the dog and cat are transmissible to man. the relation between age incidence in the host, duration of disease, and circumstances under which the animal is kept are stated. fifty out of 65 human contacts at risk to 42 infected dogs and cats showed lesions of mite infestation; 48% of these lesions were confined to the arms and torso.it is important to consider animal mite infestation in the differential diagnosis of human pruritic and papular skin disease.19684969550
efficacy of topically administered ivermectin against chorioptic and sarcoptic mange of cattle.the efficacy of topically administered ivermectin against chorioptes bovis and sarcoptes scabiei var bovis on cattle was evaluated in five studies involving a total of 68 cattle. treatment with ivermectin solution at a dose rate of 500 micrograms/kg bodyweight topically once was fully effective against c bovis and s scabiei when applied to healthy skin. efficacy against s scabiei was impaired when the formulation was applied over areas of severe lesions caused by this parasite, presumably due to ...19883413951
efficacy of ivermectin against the pig mange mite sarcoptes scabiei var. suis.the efficacy of a single subcutaneous dose of ivermectin at 300 micrograms/kg was evaluated against sarcoptes scabiei in a commercial herd of 146 pigs of which more than 80% were naturally clinically affected with mange. all pigs, except 6 control animals, were treated with ivermectin on day 0. scrapings for mite recovery were made from 12 treated animals and 6 controls at the time of treatment and 28 and 42 days later. no mites were recovered from pigs after treatment while live mites were pres ...19873612674
[facial involvement in scabies in infancy].the infestation of a 3-month-old child with sarcoptes scabiei by way of infested nipples during the breast-feeding period led initially to facial papules and later to generalized dermatitis. scabies mites were not detected on the face; studies on ten infested babies in india supported this findings. thus, direct antiscabies treatment to the face is not necessary in babies.19873679818
