Four experimental groups (n = 6) of goats naturally acquired gastrointestinal nematodes were control (GI) (untreated), positive control (GII) (treated with albendazole, 6 mg/Kg BW) and GIII and GIV treated with 5 and 10 g/Kg BW of M. paniculata leaves. Fecal samples collections were performed weekly for assessment of fecal egg count. Number of nematode eggs in goat feces (egg per gram; EPG) was determined from week 0 (pre-treatment) to week 8 (post-treatment) by modified McMaster egg counting technique. EPG values of GIV goats were significantly lower than that of the controls and those receiving the albendazole (p}, journal = {American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences}, publisher = {Science Publications} }
