Toxocara (T.) canis and Trichuris (T.) vulpis are very important canine parasitic nematodes. T. canis parasitize in small intestine and T. vulpis parasitize in large intestine. In order to control of these nematodes, ivermectin and pyrantel pamoate compound was applied to the dogs infected with these parasites naturally and artificially. This drug was composed of $68.0{\mu}g$ of ivermectin and 57.0 mg of pyrantel pamoate for small animal, $136.0{\mu}g$ of ivermectin and 114.0 mg of pyrantel pamoate for middle animal, and $272.0{\mu}g$ of ivermectin and 227.0 mg of pyrantel pamoate for large animal. Ivermectin in this drug is activity to nematodes and ectoparisites. Pyrantel pamoate in this drug is also activity to nematodes. In this experiment, this drug had a good efficacy against T. canis and T. vulpis in the infected dogs.

Dirofilaria (D.) immitis is an important canine parasitic nematode in dogs. D. immitis parasitizes the right ventricle and pulmonary artery of dogs. An ivermectin and pyrantel pamoate compound (IPPC) was administered to dogs naturally infected with this parasite. IPPC is composed of 68.0, 136.0 and $272.0{\mu}g$ of ivermectin and 57.0, 114.0 and 227.0 mg pyrantel pamoate for small, middle, and large animals. Ivermectin has activity against nematodes and ectoparasites in dogs. Pyrantel pamoate is also effective against nematodes in dogs. Our results showed that this drug combination has good efficacy in D. immitis infected dogs.

A combined syrup preparation of pyrantel pamoate and oxantel pamoate containing 50mg/ml of respective anthelminthics was evaluated on the efficacy to treat the human intestinal nematodes. Total 24 cases were treated with oral administration of above preparation 10 mg/kg body weight by single dose. The results were summarized as follows: 1. Out of 21 cases of Ascaris lumbricoides infection, 19 (90.5%) turned to be egg negative on 21 days after treatment and egg-reduction rate was 99.7%. 2. 17 cases out of 19 cases infected with Trichocephalus trichiurus were egg negative after treatment (84.2%) and egg reduction rate was 60.6%. 3. As for Ancylostoma duodenale infection, egg negative conversion rate was 88.9% and egg reduction rate was 98.1% by single oral administration among 9 infected cases. 4. In Enterobius vermicularis infection, all of 17 cases gave negative anal swab on 21th day after the treatment. From the above results, it was assumed that the anthelminthic activities of pyrantel pamoate and oxantel pamoate were not potentiated by the mixture of two kinds of drugs but showed simple additive effect.

A female Russian blue cat has invited Animal Hospital because of diarrhea after the mating. The eggs on internal parasite and Giardia sp. were diagnosed in the feces floating test, and treated with metronidazole, pyrantel pamoate and antibiotics. There were no diarrheal sign in the reevaluation, but anorexia, polydipsia, polyuria, and vaginal discharge was newly induced. Streptococcus sp. was inspected by smearing of vaginal discharge, and enlarge-ment of uterus was evaluated by x-ray examination. This case was confirmed as pyometra and recovered by ovariohysterectomy on the basis of that examination. The rate of incidence in feline pyometra is not so high as in the canine.

우리나라 농촌지역의 회충감염에 있어서 연령에 따른 재감염률의 차이 및 재감염의 가족집적성에 주안점을 두고 재감염의 특성을 파악하고자 하였다. 1977년부터 1980년까지 경기도 화성군의 11개 마을 전주민에 대하여 2, 4, 6 및 12개월 간격으로 pyrantel pamoate를 사용하여 반복집소투약하면서 각 투약간격동안 발생한 누적재감염율을 충란양성여재 및 투약후 2일간 전대편내에서의 충체양성여부를 종합하여 구하고 비교분석하였다. 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. 연령별 재감염률은 모든 투약간격 군에서 소아가 성인에 비해서 월등히 높은 것으로 나타났다. 가장 높은 재감염률 및 재감염량은 학령전 아동군에서 관찰되었고 그 다음은 국민학생 연령군이었다. 또, 이러한 연령별 재감염률의 차이는 여자보다 남자에서 훨씬 뚜렷하였다. 2. 재감염자는 어느 특정가족에 집중적으로 발생하는 강한 가족집적성이 관찰되었고 이 결과는 회충의 재감염이 무작위로 일어나는 것이 아니고 동일한 환경을 가진 특정가족간에 빈발하고 있음을 의미하고 있었다. 이상의 재감염 특성을 감안할 때 우리나라 농촌의 회충 재감염은 이른바 정국감염(dooryard infection)에 의한 것으로 추측되었으며, 또 보다 효과적인 집회관리를 위해서는 학령전 아동이 반드시 관리대상에 포함되어야 할 것으로 생각되었다.

우리나라 농재지역의 회충감염에 있어서 현재감염률(prevalence)과 월재감염률(monthlyreinfection rate)의 상관관계를 알아보고자 하였다. 1975년부터 1980년까지 경기도 화성군 등 10개지역의 주민 총 4,466명에 대하여 충란융성여부에 관계없이 전원 pyrantel pamoate 10mg/kg을 투약한 뒤 2,547명으로부터 투약후 2일간의 전대편을 수집하였다. 수집될 대편으로부터 구충되어 배출된 인충의 성충 및 유약충(young worm)을 골라내고 충체수집검사자중 충체양성자 비율을 현재감염률로 표시하는 한편, 유약충양성자를 가려내어 지난 2개월동안의 누적연감염률로 표시하였다. 또 이로부터 월경감염률을 구한 뒤 현재감난률과의 상관관계를 분석하였다. 상관관계의 model은 Hayash의 시간-감염률(time.prevalence) 관계곡선식을 응용하였다. 조사한 10개지역의 감염률 및 1인당 평균 감염량은 각각 13.6~72.3% 및 1.4~10.2의 범위에 있었고, 계산된 월재감염률은 지성에 따라 2.6~16.2%의 범위에 있었다. 감염률(Y)과 월재감염률(X)은 서로 깊은 사성 상관관계를 나타내고 있었고, 상관곡선식은 $Y=1-(1-X)^{7.2}$로 나타났다. 수식중 수치 7.2는 이론적으로 회충감염이 일차투약으로 완전치료된 후 다시 재감염되어 평형상태에 도달하기 위한 기간(개월)으로 해석되었다. 또, 회충이 재감염에 의해서 감염률이 지속적으로 상승하지 않고 7~8개월후 평형상태를 유지하게 된다는 것은 인체내에서 회충이 대략 7~8개월만에 새로운 충체에 의해서 바뀌어지고 있음을(turn over) 의미하는 것으로 생각되었다.

우리나라 8개 농촌지역의 회충 감염율, 감염 량 및 기초산란율(basic reproductive rate)등 역학적 변수의 상관관계를 관찰함으로써 우리나라 회충감염 실태를 분석하였다. 이들 감염율, 감염량 등은 대변검사는 물론 pyrantel pamoate투여후 충체 회수결과에 의해 측정하였으며 그 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 각 조사지역의 충체양성률(감염율)은 16.5~79.5%의 범위에 있었고 이것은 대변검사에 의한 충란양성률 3.3~66.7%보다 9~18%가 높은 수치이었다. 조사대상 주민의 평균 회충 감염량은 지역에 따라 0.21에서 8.44로 나타났고 개인별 감염량 분포는 'k'치가 0.38~0.54인 부이항분포(negative binomial distribution)를 보였다. 2. 이 조사에서 나타난 충체양성률은 Anderson과 May의 수식 $p=1-(1+M^{*}/k)^{-k}$ (p : 충체양성률, $M^*$ : 평형상태의 평균 감염량)에 의해 구한 이론치와 거의 일치하여 우리나라 농촌지역의 회충감염률과 감염량의 상관관계는 이 수식에 의해 매우 정확히 표현됨을 알 수 있었다. 또 회충 암컷 1마리가 평생 산출하는 무수한 충란중 다음 숙주에 성공적으로 감염되고 성숙되는 암컷의 수를 표시하는 기초산란을(R)은 지역에 따라 1.03에서 2.11까지인 것으로 나타났다. 이상의 결과로 보아 'R'치가 1에 가까운 지역은 역학적으로 재감염의 breakpoin떼 도달하고 있는 것으로 판정되므로 회충 박멸이 매우 희망적이지만 전국적으로 'R'치가 1이하로 될 때까지 우리나라 회충관리사업은 계속되어야 할 것으로 생각된다.

In attempt to develop a drug delivery system using serum albumin microspheres, bovine serum albumin microspheres containing antitumar agent. Cytarabine, were prepared. The shape, surface characteristics, size distribution, behavior of in vivo distribution, drug release behavior, and degradation of albumin microsphers in animal liver issue homogenate and proteolytic enzyme were investigated. The shape of albumin microspheres was spherical and the surface was smooth and compact. The size distribution of the albumin microspheres was effected by dispertion forces during emulsification and albumin concentration. Distribution of albumin microspheres after imtravenous administration in rabbit was achieved immediately. In vitro, albumin microsphere matrix was so hard that it retained most of cytarabine except initial burst during the first 10 minutes, and the level of drug release during the initial burst was affected by heating temperature, drug/albumin microsphere matrix was so hard that it retained most of cytarabine except initial burst during the first 10 minutes, and the level of drug release during the initial burst was affected by heating temperature, drug/albumin concentration ratio and size distribution. After drug release test, the morphology of albumin microspheres was not changed. Albumin microsphere matrix was degraded by the animal liver issue homogenate and proteolytic enzyme. The degree of degradation was affected by heating temperature.

Enterobiasis is common helminthic infections found in man. But control of this disease is still troublesome because of its difficulty in the d diagnosis and prevention of infection. Considering the difficulty of accurate diagnosis of pinworm infection, which is very common and somewhat pathogenic, reevaluation of cellotape anal swab method for the diagnosis of enterobiasis was performed. A total of 147 children ranging the ages of 1-12 years in 3 orphanages in the suburbs of Seoul, Korea was subjected for this study. Repeated cellotape anal swabs were carried out against 70 children, 7 times for 3 days interval, in the morning 6am. Finally 10 mg/kg body weight pyrantel pamoates were given to all children including egg negative cases and whole stools of 3 following successive days were collected for the confirmation of residual worm ourden at the time of treatment. Cellotape anal swabs were also performed to another 77 children at 6am, 3pm, 9pm, twice for 3 days interval. The resultant findings were summarized as follows; 1) While the each time average detection rate of Enterobius egg was 28.8% in this study group, the accumulative detection rate up to 7th examination was 62.8%. The accumulative detection rate rose continuously up to 6th examination. 2) After administration of pyrantel pamoate 10 mg/kg body weight, final infection rate was increased to 72.9% by adding worm positive cases who didn't show any evidence of infection in the cellotape anal swabs. 3) Although pinworms were detected in 35 among 70 children treated, 7 cases (20%) of them were egg negative cases in 7 consecutive cellotape anal swabs. 4) Pinworms were expelleded in 14 (87.5%) among 16 children whose swab result was positive in the last examination which was done concurrently with drug administration. 5) Estimated infection rate calculated by best asymptotically normal estimate of Neuman from Moriya's modification revealed 71.5% similar to 72.9% of present results. 6) The result of anal swab performed at 6am was higher than that of 3pm or 8pm. In conclusion, cellotape anal swab method for Enterobius vermicularis infection was considered as method having relatively high positive accuracy. However to gain the reliable infection rate, at least 6 examination is required in the group with 25-30% infection rate by single swab. Moriya's modification of Neuman could be used efficiently in the mass control of this diease for the estimation of true infection rate of E. vermicularis in the sampled population.

Phongsaly Province, located in the northernmost area of Lao PDR, was previously suggested to be endemic for the liver fluke Opisthorchis viverrini infection. To confirm, or rule out, this suggestion, the Phonxay village in the Khoua District, Phongsaly Province, was selected for a survey. Ten volunteers (8 men and 2 women aged 31-57 years) who consumed raw freshwater fish and had gastrointestinal troubles were treated with a single dose of praziquantel (40 mg/kg) and pyrantel pamoate (10 mglkg) and purged with magnesium sulfate to recover any worm parasites. Eight of the 10 volunteers expelled 1 or more species of trematodes, nematodes, or cestodes (worm positive rate; 80%). The worms were morphologically identified as H. taichui (861 worms from 8 people), H. yokogawai (59 from 6 people), Phaneropsolus bonnei (1 from 1 person), Trichostrongylus sp. (2 from 2 people), Ascaris lumbricoides (2 from 1 person), Enterobius vermicularis (11 from 3 people), and Taenia saginata (1 strobila with scolex from 1 person). The results indicate that the mountainous area of Phongsaly Province, Lao PDR, is not endemic for the liver fluke but endemic for intestinal flukes, in particular, Haplorchis taichuiand H. yokogawai.
