Worm count, percent deparasitization and host clearance after treatment with crude extract of E. schimperi

Groups	Dose administered (mg/kg)	Mean no of parasites	% deparasitization	% host clearance
Group I	750	1.2 ± 0.49*a	40	40
Group II	1000	0.0 ± 0.0*b	100	100
Group III	2000	0.0 ± 0.0*b	100	100
Group IV	25 (PQ)	0.0 ± 0.0*b	100	100
Group V	vehicle	2.00 ± 0.32	0	0

PQ: Praziquantel

* Mean number of parasite within row is significantly different at p <0.05, while the letters ^{a b} show significant difference at p <0.01 as determined by LSD multiple comparison test
