The present invention relates to a new method for treating gill repellents that is economical and maximizes the therapeutic effect by using cimetidine, which is used as a therapeutic agent for duodenal ulcer, as a combination and applying it to gill repellents of fish with very low therapeutic efficiency. .

Refers to a disease that causes parasites in gills and damages fish. The parasites push their heads into blood vessels distributed in the gills of parasitic gills, sucking blood or sucking tissue, causing severe anemia and necrotic tissue necrosis in fish, as well as wounds caused by their parasites. Secondary to facilitate the invasion of pathogens, such as bacteria, and cause a lot of harm, such as causing severe stress on fish.

It hatches into cilia larvae called oncomiracidium and parasitises in the gills of fish. This direct living environment can lead to severe infection in a short time, which causes severe productivity loss, such as the death of fish and impede growth.

However, formalin is currently not only regulated as a fishery drug due to environmental pollution and human health problems, but is also known to have poor treatment efficiency for fish gill respiratory disease through a formalin bath. Masoten is also used for the treatment of gillsworms in fish by using a method of bathing, but the treatment efficiency is very weak.

Fraziquantel has been widely used in Europe since , and has been used worldwide in the s. Praziquantel was also recognized for its importance as a veterinary drug and was approved for use as a veterinary drug in the United States in , and was approved and registered as a human drug in by the US Food and Drug Administration.

Clinical and biochemical investigations revealed no changes related to drug administration [Leopold et al., ]. These pharmacokinetic studies have led to Fraziquantel's toxic changes in major functions and organs of the human body. It was confirmed that it does not cause Praziquantel's suitability as a therapeutic agent. In addition, comprehensive toxicity studies on praziquantel through various test systems have been conducted by WHO in collaboration with the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), which has resulted in harmful effects on mutagenesis, cancer induction, malformations and embryos. No problem was identified [WHO, ].

Encapsulated larvae of Clinostomum marginatum [Lorio, ] and worms parasitic in the gut of marine and freshwater fish [Pool et al., ; Moser et al., ; Sanmartin Duran et al., ] have been used to treat parasitic diseases. However, these parasites are all internal parasitic species that are parasitic in the body of fish, and there are no reports of oral administration of Fraziquantel to control external parasites such as gill insects.

&#;&#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#; &#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#; &#;&#; &#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#; &#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#;. &#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#;, &#;&#;&#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#; &#;&#; &#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#; &#;&#; &#; &#;&#;&#;&#;. &#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#; &#; &#; &#;&#; &#; &#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#; &#; &#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#;.It is clear that treatment of fish gillsworms with oral administration of Fraziquantel is very useful in that it does not stress the fish at all and saves labor. However, despite the fact that Praziquantel's oral administration has been shown to be an effective treatment for gillsworms in fish, it is very costly for the aquaculture industry to use because it is quite expensive. Giving is the biggest disadvantage. Therefore, in order to solve these shortcomings, it is necessary to develop a technology that can achieve an effective therapeutic effect at the minimum possible concentration of praziquantel.

&#;&#;&#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#; &#; &#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#; &#; &#;&#;. &#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#;&#;(neurocysticercosis)&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#; &#;&#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;. &#;&#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#;(histamine) H2-&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#; &#; &#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;, &#;&#; &#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#; &#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#; &#;&#; &#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#; &#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#;. &#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#; &#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#;&#; P450&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#;, &#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#;&#;&#;&#; &#; &#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#; &#; &#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#;&#; &#;&#;.In order to reduce the dosage of praziquantel and at the same time increase the therapeutic effect, it may be possible by slowing down the rate at which praziquantel is broken down in the liver and excreted in the kidneys. Recently, there have been reports of good results obtained by simultaneous administration of cimetidine in order to increase the therapeutic efficiency in treating cysticidercosis using praziquantel. Cimetidine is a type of histamine H2-receptor antagonist that has been used originally to suppress gastric acid secretion in the treatment of gastric ulcers in humans, but it also slows down the excretion rate by inhibiting the metabolism of some specific drugs in the liver, It has been found to have an effect of increasing the concentration. The effect of cimetidine is mainly due to the inhibition of the metabolism of the drug by inhibiting the activity of cytochrome P450 present in the liver or kidney, and this function is suppressed the metabolism and excretion of praziquantel in the blood when used simultaneously with praziquantel It has been shown to increase the concentration of prazicantel and also increase the pesticidal effect of the parasite by allowing prazicantel to stay in the blood for longer than administered alone.

Effects of Formulation on the Palatability and Efficacy of In-Feed ...

Abstract

Praziquantel (PZQ) provides an effective treatment against monogenean parasitic infestations in finfish. However, its use as an in-feed treatment is challenging due to palatability issues. In this study, five formulations of PZQ beads (1&#;4 mm) were developed using marine-based polymers, with allicin added as a flavouring agent. All formulations attained PZQ loading rates &#;74% w/w, and the beads were successfully incorporated into fish feed pellets at an active dietary inclusion level of 10 g/kg. When tested for palatability and digestibility in small yellowtail kingfish, the PZQ-loaded beads produced with alginate-chitosan, alginate-Cremophor® RH40, and agar as carriers resulted in high consumption rates of 99&#;100% with no digesta or evidence of beads in the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) of fish fed with diets containing either formulation. Two formulations produced using chitosan-based carriers resulted in lower consumption rates of 68&#;75%, with undigested and partly digested beads found in the fish GIT 3 h post feeding. The PZQ-loaded alginate-chitosan and agar beads also showed good palatability in large (&#;2 kg) yellowtail kingfish infected with gill parasites and were efficacious in removing the parasites from the fish, achieving >90% reduction in mean abundance relative to control fish (p < 0.001). The two effective formulations were stable upon storage at ambient temperature for up to 18 months, showing residual drug content >90% compared with baseline levels. Overall, the palatability, efficacy and stability data collected from this study suggest that these two PZQ particulate formulations have potential applications as in-feed anti-parasitic medications for the yellowtail kingfish farming industry.
