1Which is the most common sheep nematode in the UK?
- AN. battus
- BH. contortus
- CT. circumcincta
- DTrichostrongylus
2Which of the following are only in combination forms?
- AGroup 1 - BZ
- BGroup 2 - LV
- CGroup 3 - ML
- DGroup 4 - AD
- EGroup 5 - SI
3Resistance is a [blank_start]heritable[blank_end], irreversible reduction in sensitivity to action of a drug that should be effective.
All groups showing resistance other than [blank_start]derquantel[blank_end] ([blank_start]5[blank_end]) which is used in combination so may be slowing resistance down for this reason.
BZ = [blank_start]100[blank_end]% of UK farms have resistance
LV = 40%
[blank_start]ML[blank_end] = 63%- Aheritable
- Bderquantel
- C5
- D100
- EML
4T/F: it is possible to use anthelmintics and not have resistance in parasites
- ATrue
- BFalse
5How can farmers easily measure the resistance on farms?
- Afaecal egg counts before and after the treatment
- Bperformance rating
- Clab bioassays
- Dlook at the species present in faeces before and after treatment
6T/F: Groups 4 and 5 are POM -V
- ATrue
- BFalse
7'[blank_start]in refugia[blank_end]' refers to parasites that are free-living in environment and have not been exposed to anthelmintic therefore are susceptible and dilute the resistant population. Hence the goal is not to have no worms but to minimise the poor production/ disease caused by the worms while limiting [blank_start]resistant[blank_end] worms.
- Ain refugia
- Bresistant
8Which of the following is used to control the spring rise but should ideally only be used once yearly?
- AMoxidectin
- BBenzimidazoles
- CLevamisoles
- DDerquantel
- EMonepantel
- FIvermectin
9Liver fluke - Fasciola hepatica
Resistance against [blank_start]triclabendazole[blank_end] now as used as targets but juviniles and adults. Advice to use more specific treatments ie closantel and nitroxynil for adult worms present with [blank_start]chronic[blank_end] infections in [blank_start]spring[blank_end]- Atriclabendazole
- Bchronic
- Cspring
10The advice given by SCOPS
Advice:
1. [blank_start]Plan[blank_end]
2. Quarantine
3. ID [blank_start]resistance[blank_end] on farm
4. Admin anthelmintics [blank_start]effectively[blank_end]
5. Use only when necessary
6. Select an appropriate [blank_start]drug[blank_end]
7. Preserve [blank_start]susceptible[blank_end] worms
8. Reduce dependence- Asusceptible
- Beffectively
- Cresistance
- Ddrug
- EPlan
11What criteria can be used for targeted selective treatment in UK for all nematodes?
- AGrowth weight
- BAnaemia
- CBCS
- DWool Quality
