K. S. Shah, G. C. Mandali, S. K. Bhavsar
Abstract: Sarcoptes scabies causes one of the most contagious and zoonotic disease in goats known as mange. Total 6 goats of Surti and Marwari breeds, infested with mange were selected from surrounding village of Anand district of Gujarat state in India. The diagnosis was carried out by skin scrapping examination. All the goats were treated with 25% aqueous extract of Azadirachta indica for more than 35 days. The levels of haematological parameters, viz., Haemoglobin (Hb), Total Erythrocyte Count (TEC), Total Platelet Count (TPC), Pack Cell Volume (PCV), Neutrophils, and Monocytes were decreased significantly, whereas those of Total Leukocyte Count (TLC), Lymphocytes and Eosinophils were increased significantly (p<0.05) in all six mange affected goats as compared to healthy control group goats (n=6).
