PRELIMINARILY STUDY OF DISINFECTION CONTROL AND CHINESE HERBAL MEDICATION ON HORSE DISEASE PREVENTION Abstract With the continue expansion of the Equestrian industry in Shanghai, improvement of quality horse care, disease control and prevention are in demand, these open up a whole new topic for the veterinary researchers. On the preliminarily study, the writer summarized their findings that the characteristics of the Shanghai’s climate plays an important part.

The results showed that: The first experiment using microbiology method to analysis distribution of pathogenic micro-organisms, before and after disinfecting the stable stalls. Distribution of micro-organisms showed a certain upward trend at different period. The day after disinfection, number of Fecal Bacteria in the feces significantly lower (P 0.05), changes were not significant on Day 1-3 (P 0.05). Day 4 bacteria significantly increased, Day 6 bacteria back to the same as before disinfection. The second experiment : after performing vivo tests on fresh samples of horse stool, result of the herbal group showed that the parasite egg count had an upward trend during week 1 and 2 after treatment. On Week 3 - 6, the count was significantly lower. The result from the control group showed the egg count had a downward trend, however it was basically stayed the same. The endpoint nephelometry, RT-PCR method was used to determine impact of Chinese herbal medicines additives in the horse’s blood IgG and cytokines IL-2, IFN-γ levels.
