Oak and Walnut are both of ethnoveterinary importance, especially for anthelmintic treatment of ruminants [1,2]. H2O and EtOH-water (1:1) extracts of oak and walnut foliage were used for phytochemical profiling and for in vitro assays with Caenorhabditis elegans and gastrointestinal nematodes (GIN). Oak extracts contained mainly tannins, walnut extracts were dominated by flavonoids. Oak EtOH extract caused significant lethal effects in adult C. elegans (LC50 1.5 mg/mL); motility of GIN L3 larvae was reduced by the EtOH extract but at substantially higher concentrations. Egg hatching was inhibited by both, the oak H2O and EtOH extract. In vivo: 42 lactating Alpine goats carrying natural GIN infections were allocated to 3 feeding groups: oak, walnut and... |
