Combined toxicity of comaphos and diazinon on Nubian goats

Abstract EN

Two groups of Nubian goats were given 0.5 mg/kg/day coumaphos or diazinon.

Another group of goats was given a mixture of coumaphos (0.25 mg/kg) and diazinon (0.25 mg/kg).

The clinical and pathological investigations indicated that coumaphos/diazinon mixture had synergistic toxic effect on Nubian goats and death occurred within a period between 8-15 days.

Animals in the first two groups showed mild findings and they were slaughtered on the ninety-first day.
