| Abstract |
The toxicity and efficiency of zinc phosphide and ethanolie leaf extract of Oshar plant, Calotropis procera were studied against the wiled house mouse; Mus musculus under laboratory and-'field conditions. Results showed that zinc phosphide was more toxic than Oshar extract whereas the acute oral LDSO values were 31.6 arid 88.0' mg/kg b w, respectively. Oral administration of sub-lethal dose (1/4LDSO) of . each compound induced a noticeable dysfunction in 'aspartate aminotransferase (AS'T'), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) enzymes and total protein, as they increased in plasma; at 24 and 48h after treatment indicating -a heptic disorder'and/or damage. :A prolongation of the prothrombin time (PT) had occurred following .administration of Oshar extract indicating disorders in blood coagulation mechanism but no effect on (PT)was observed with zinc phosphide treatment. The -efficacy tests showed :
that in both non-choice and free-choice feeding tests a bait containing, 1% either zinc phosphide or Oshar extract gave 100% mortality with shorter time to death for zinc phosphide treatrr:Pnt; Qshar bait was more palatable to mice than zinc phosphide with 5$.4 and 42.6% bait acceptance,;respectively. Under the field conditions of Beni Suef Governorate,ezinc phosphide,caused 78:4% population reduction whereas Oshar extract reduced 66% of the mouse population.
