The Avian Coccidiosis

Dear Dr. Humphrey Mbugua,
Completely agree that correct coccidia management includes all of the aforementioned factors: cleaning, disinfection, climate control, farm management, feeding, biosecurity measures.

Dear Aripin Drh,

Essential oils have multidirectional mode of action, in case of coccidiosis the most important properties of essential oils is its capability to increase the permeability of ooquists wall and also to protect the intestine epithelium from adhesion of sporozoits and squizonts.

Dear Khristoffer C. Villanueva
As far as the severity of the infection depends also on the quantity of oocyst ingested by the animal, establishing adequate cleaning and disinfection protocols are crucial in the prevention program.
Ammonium hydroxide, hydrogen peroxide, acetic acid, peracetic acid…are among the alternatives, alone or in combination.
We shall not forget also other biosecurity measures like keeping drinkers and feeders in height, litter management, ventilation…
