Hypo phosphatemic haemoglobinuria and gastrointestinal nematode correlation in buffaloes and approach to treatment and gastrointestinal nematode correlation in buffaloes and approach to treatment

Abstract: Haemoglobrinuria was investigated in lactating buffaloes suffering from hypohosphataemia alone and hypophosphataemia associated with gastrointestinal nematodes.
The correlation between hypophosphataemia and gastrointestinal nematodes was studied through (35) female lactating buffaloes (7-9 years old) and 2-4 month after parturition.
Blood and serum samples were obtained for estimation of R.B.C, W.B.Cs, differential leucocytic count, PCV, Hb, protein albumin and globulin in addition to glucose, calcium, magnesium and phosphorus concentrations. Fecal samples were obtained for diagnosis of gastrointestinal nematodes. Clinical symptoms were recorded for all groups.
Laboratory measures showed significant decrease in R.B.Cs, Hb, PCV, calcium and phosphorus and significant increase in W.B.Cs and total protein.
Clinical symptoms in cases of hypophosphataemia and nematode hypophosphataemic animals showed 37.1oC rectal temp., 88 per minute heart rate and 42 per minute respiratory rate, these animals characterized by dulness, emaciation, bloody urine, off food, ruminal motility was 2 per minute and pale mucus membrane.
Treatment to all groups by sodium dibasic phosphate to hypophosphataemic animals and by sodium dibasic phosphate and antinematodal grug (tetramisol hyprochloride (Citarin Bayer) to those suffer from hypophosphataemia associated with gastrointestinal nematodes showed good result.
