Studies on the action of C2Cl4 in chickens experimentally infested by Ascaridia galli (Schrank, 1788) in function of avian weight (from the first week of life

Abstract

The author report the results obtained by administration of C2Cl4 to several groups of chickens experimentally infested with Ascaridia galli (Schrank, 1788). As a criterion of efficiency of the drug we considered the weekly weight of the chickens from the first to the twelfth weeks. From the results pointed out on the tables I, II, III and IV and by the growth curve of the graph it could be concluded that the variability of the weights during the experimental period would explain the no statistical significance of the average weight, of the four lots.
