Description Occurrence of anthelmintic resistant strains of helminths
is increasing. The aim of this study was to evaluate the
in vitro anthelmintic activity of Artemisia campestris in comparison
to albendazole against Haemonchus contortus of
sheep. In this respect, in vitro anthelmintic activities of crude
aqueous and crude ethanolic extracts of aerial parts of
A. campestris were investigated on eggs and adults of
Haemonchus contortus. Chemical analyses revealed that overall
profile of both extracts samples were dominated by flavonoids
among them quercetin and apigenin derivatives were the
most abundant phenolics constituents. Both extract types
completely inhibited egg hatching at a concentration close to
2 mg/ml. Lethal concentration 50% of A. campestris ethanolic
and aqueous extracts were 0.83 and 1.00 mg/ml respectively
