Abstract

In the last twenty-five years, since it was realized that the control of flock infections was more important than the treatment of individuals with patent infections, there has been an increasing interest in the use of anthelmintic drugs. As might be expected there has been a wide search for the most effective chemicals and considerable research into the best methods of administration, and as a consequence of this many workers have been engaged in devising methods of testing the efficiency of various compounds.
