Twenty four white leghorn layer birds, naturally infested with Menopon gallinae and Lipeurus tropicalis were divided into four groups comprising of six birds. Group I and group II were sprayed with neem and pungan oil at the dose rate of 5 ml per bird respectively. Group III was treated with cypermethrin (0.2 %) and the birds of group IV were kept as control.

In the cypermethrin treated group the lice count came down to zero on 7th day post treatment. But, no such reduction in the lice count was observed in the control group. Reinfestation was not observed up to 60 days in the treated groups.OtherItem Open Access Comparative Efficacy of Neem and Pungan Oil against Lice Infestation in ChickenPonnudurai, G.; Harikrishnan, T.J.; Rani, N.; Meenakshisundaram, A.; TANUVASLice infestation is very common in chicken; even the birds maintaining under cage systems are not spared with this. Traditionally its control is accomplished through using of various classes of insecticides. But continuous use of these insecticides may lead development of resistant strains and environmental pollution.ArticleItem Open Access Comparative Efcacy of Closantel and Ivermectin against Nasal Myiasis in Sheep(Indian Vet. J., 2013-11) Senthilvel, K.; Arunachalam, K.; Velusamy, R.; Anbarasi, P.; Ponnudurai, G.; TANUVASNasal myiasis caused by larvae of sheep nasal y, Oestrus ovis is common among farm bred sheep ocks in Tamil Nadu (Jeyathilakan et al., 2008). Parasitism with larvae of O. ovis causes restlessness, head shaking, sneezing and reduction in feed intake in affected sheep (Muraleedharan et al., 2004). Several anthelmintics belonging to the salicylanilide group like nitroxynil, rafoxanide and oxyclozanide were found to be effective against oestrus myiasis (D’ Souza et al., 1992: Singh and Gill, 1995; Muraleedharan et al., 1999) in sheep. In the present study, an attempt was made to evaluate the comparative efcacy of closantel and ivermectin against clinically affected cases of nasal myiasis in sheep.OtherItem Open Access Concurrent Infection of Oestrus Ovis and Enterotoxaemia in SheepArulmozhi, A.; Balasubramaniam, G.A.; Ponnudurai, G.; TANUVASA Maecheri doe carcass of two years old was presented to Department of Veterinary Pathology, Veterinary ' College and Research Institute, Namakkal for postmortem examination with the history of sudden mortality with nervous signs.ArticleItem Open Access Detection of Hepatozoan canis in Dogs from Namakkal Region of Tamilnadu by Conventional and Molecular Approach(Int. J. Curr. Microbiology and Applied Sciences, 2017) Kalaivanan, M.; Saravanan, S.; Palanivel, K.M.; Ponnudurai, G.; TANUVASA total of 150 dogs brought to Teaching Veterinary Clinical Complex (TCCC), Veterinary College and Research Institute, Namakkal, from September, 2015 to April, 2016 were screened for the haemoparasite, H. canis by blood smear examination and polymerase chain reaction which revealed a positivity of 0.66 and 5.33 per cent, respectively. The PCR was found to have a high sensitivity (100.0%) and specificity (91.27%) when compared with microscopic examination. The target 18S rRNA of H. canis identified was found to possess a 100.0 per cent homology with the H. canis of dogs in Hungary, Italy, Japan, North Africa, Pakistan, Portugal and Thailand. Rhipicephalus sanguineus was the tick vector identified from the positive cases and the males (6.48%), cross breed dogs (10.0%) and the age group of >4 years (9.09%) were found to be highly susceptible.ThesisItem Open Access Detection of Synthetic Pyrethroids Resistance in Haemaphysalis Spp. of Ticks(TANUVAS, Chennai, 2014) Rubinibala, B.; TANUVAS; Ponnudurai, G.; Senthilvel, K.; Balasubramaniam, A.ArticleItem Open Access The Effect of IPR on Animal Genetic Resources, Genetic Diversity, Genetic Improvement and the Livelihoods of Livestock Keepers(2015-03) Selvam, R.; Panneerselvam, S.; Thiruvenkadan, A.K.; Ponnudurai, G.; Kumar, V.

Thirty day old broiler chicks were divided into 5 experimental groups, each group having 6 chicks, and were maintained on an anticoccidial free diet. Groups A, B, C and D were challenged with 30,000 sporulated oocysts of E. tenella at day 28 of age, while group E served as the uninfected unmedicated control. After 3 days of challenge infection, the birds belonging to groups A and B were treated with herbal complex at the dose rate of 5 and 10% for 7 days continuously.OtherItem Open Access Efficacy of Diflubenzuron 25 WP as a feed additive and topical spray for controlling housefly breeding in Poultry ManureHarikrishnan, T.J.; Suganthi, P.; Ponnudurai, G.; Lavakumar, S.; Ramesh, A.; Balakrishnamurthy, P.; TANUVASDiflubenzuron ZSWP was evaluated as a feed additive for control of flies in poultry farms.

In these trials, all the three concentrations of M.anisopliae spore caused >90 per cent mortality of adult house flies in 6 to 10 days. In case of B.bassiana, two concentrations of 7.5x10^7 and 15x10^7 spores per ml produced >90 per cent mortality of flies while the lowest concentration (5x10^7) caused 82.9±7.2 per cent mortality of adult flies.
