Among these pathologies, coccidiosis is regarded as the leading cause of decreased productive yields in the planet, not only due to the losses that the disease’s clinical presentation can entail but also, and with greater relevance: sub-optimal growth, pigmentation deficiency, deteriorating food conversion brought about by the subclinical presentation of this parasitic pathology.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Seven species are acknowledged to affect poultry production, as each species produces medical conditions with a particular location in the intestinal tract (Allen and Fetterer 2002).\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong>Coccidiosis\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The parasite multiplies in the gastrointestinal tract, causing tissue damage with the subsequent stoppage of a proper absorption of nutrients, dehydration, haemorrhaging, loss of pigmentation and increased susceptibility to other pathogens.

Improvements in handling, use of vaccines and other practices have helped control coccidia infections; however, traditionally, the most commonly-used means of control has involved the use of anti-coccidian medication.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>With the prohibition of antimicrobial agents in some countries, less effectiveness of some medications due to resistance development and the growing disapproval of antibiotic use by consumers, producers have started looking for alternative treatments.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong>Natural anti-coccidian compounds\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Natural anti-coccidian compounds found in plants comprise an obvious alternative, having shown encouraging results. Plant compounds such as Acacia concinna and Saccharum oicinarum, have been widely and historically studied and utilised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Because this kind of product contains only natural plants – dried and ground –, it can be ensured that these are safe products, suited for use both in conventional production and organic production, not subject to limited or regulated concessions for their inclusion. There are no limitations to the amounts used, either regarding feeding times – that is, it can be used at every stage of growth –, allowing it to be used with other synthetic anti-coccidians – rotation programmes – and with coccidia vaccines. Research and field studies conducted on a product containing these plants have allowed observing the benefits provided in terms of improving the productive parameters in poultry by controlling the protozoal parasitic load, as this acts in the intestinal environment of poultry and as a promoter of a greater immunity in terms of antibody production.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Because the mode of action of anti-coccidian compounds occurs using various natural compounds acting in a broad and complex manner, interacting synergistically, it is unlikely to lead to the mentioned parasites’ developing a resistance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong>How does this association work?\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Plants contain many compounds – called secondary metabolites – which these can use for their own purposes – metabolism, defence, etc.–. When they are ingested by animals, such as poultry, these compounds can have effects on the animal’s metabolism.\u003Cbr>Many of the synthetic products currently in use were created from observing compounds present in plants, which were isolated and then synthesised in order to reproduce the effects of natural products.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Unlike a synthetic drug with just one single action mechanism, the metabolites active in the plants can be manifold and act together synergistically, which could make it difficult to determine exactly the mode of action.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>This mixture’s saponin content allows modifying the membranes of coccidia organisms and otocysts produced for coccidia proliferation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Anamika et al. 2017 examined Acacia concinna and found that it contained 11.8% of saponins. The main biological effect of saponins has been attributed to its action on the membranes, where it has the ability to form pores.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>In particular, the saponins’ ability to bond with the cholesterol of the protozoan cell membrane can modify the membrane’s function and structure and account for its anti-coccidian activity. Natural saponins can inhibit protozoa development by interacting with the cholesterol present in the parasite’s cell membrane (Wang et al., 1998).\u003Cbr>It appears that, after the parasite invasion, free radicals, together with high levels of nitrous oxide production, comprise the main factors that compromise the cells’ antioxidant defence system.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Compounds meeting the requirements of the antioxidant defence system or interfering directly with free radicals, such as tannins, can restore the balance of oxidants\u002Fantioxidants, which leads to improved intestinal integrity and yield during subclinical coccidiosis (Cejas et al., 2011).\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Although this plant mixture’s saponin and tannin content appears to provide the main mode of action for controlling coccidia, it should also be pointed out that Saccharum oicinarum also provides an additional benefit through an immunostimulating effect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>S. oicinarum can improve protective immunity against coccidiosis (Awais et al., 2011) as shown in the studies. Sugar cane extract contains a polysaccharide that activates the route to supplementing the immune system, boosting the immune response to coccidia (El-Abasy et al., 2003).\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Saccharum oicinarum is rich in phenolic compounds that have been shown to comprise antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities, as well as inhibitory effects on the sporulation of otocysts (Abbas et al., 2015).\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong>Tests\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Research tests have shown that the mixture of these plants can be just as effective a means in controlling coccidia infections as the currently admissible synthetic coccidiostats.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>This year, a test was conducted using 300 one-day-old chicks, distributed into 5 groups. Each group comprised 6 sub-groups with 10 chicks, in the testing area for animal parasitology (Servicapa, Mexico).\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The purpose was to evaluate the anti-coccidial efficacy of the previously described herbal blend, in two different doses (500g\u002Ft and 750g\u002Ft) relative to the efficacy of one of the Ionophores in greatest demand in the poultry community (Salinomicina 12%), challenged with an inoculation of sporulated oocysts of isolated coccidia mixed on day 21.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong>Doses\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>In doses of inoculation, per chick, of:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cul class=\"wp-block-list\">\u003Cli>E. acervulina 100,000 oocysts\u003C\u002Fli>\u003Cli>E. maxima 50,000 oocysts\u003C\u002Fli>\u003Cli>E. tenella 50,000 oocysts\u003C\u002Fli>\u003C\u002Ful>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The inoculation was administered orally and, at 35 days, the anti-coccidial efficacy was determined based on the Injury Rate (IR) Oocyst Rate (OR) via sampling and analysis of stools at 7 and 14 days post-infection, using the Johnson &amp; Reid method. The 2 groups with herbal blends (T3 and T4) confirm their efficacy by presenting a lower IR in the three intestinal regions relative to the injuries of the group treated with Salinomycin (T5).\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The results of the anticoccidial efficacy – IAC – of the herbal blend, in the two evaluated doses, shows very interesting results. This parameter interrelates via the following equation:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>IAC = (%S + %GPR) – (IR + OR)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The survival, the relative weight gain and the injury and oocyte rates – Ma et al., 2011–, obtaining the rating for low anti-coccidian activity when the score is below 160; moderate when in the 160-180 range, and good when the calculation is over 180 (Morisawa et al. 1977).\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>We can see that the figures for both groups with herbal blend somewhat exceed 180, with which it can be concluded that their anti-coccidian activity would be good and comparable to that of the products of non-natural origin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>It can be concluded that natural products containing Acacia concinna and Saccharum oicinarum are reliable and can provide protection against common coccidia infections while promoting intestinal integrity and balance, and improving immunological functions. It is important to prove product efficacy and profitability by conducting tests as shown here, with a view to controlling and reducing the decline in production efficiency caused by this type of pathology.\u003C\u002Fp>\n","Improving production efficiency by controlling protozoa via herbal blend - Nuproxa Switzerland

Development of resistance by coccidia\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fh2>\u003Cp>Resistance occurs when a medication is used repeatedly without rotation with other products.

Loss of sensitivity to the medication\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fh2>\u003Cp>Resistance develops when continuous administration or prolonged exposure to the same anticoccidial makes coccidia less sensitive to the medication (Ruff, 1993).
