In Vitro Effectiveness of Forest Betel Leaf (Piper sarmentosum Roxb.) Extract against Haemonchus contortus Larvae
Haemonchosis is a parasitic disease that affects ruminants and humans. This study aims to determine whether its extract can kill H. contortus. The betel leaf extract was prepared: 25, 50, 75, and 100%. The extract was administered to L3 H. contortus, and 6-h observations were made. The results showed that the betel leaf extract could kill L3 H. contortus within 3 h of treatment.
