Abstract
Specific resistance to benzimidazole group in gastro intestinal nematodes of goats was carried out by Egg hatch test. Albendazole was the drug used and the test revealed ED50 value (
g/ml) to be 0.211556 which was much higher than the prescribed value (0.1
g/ml). EHT gives a quantitative estimate of benzimidazole resistance and may be used in field surveys along with FECRT to monitor the development of anthelmintic resistance.
