In vivo activity:
The purpose of this experiment was to study the relative limits of tolerance (in terms of growth) of broiler chicks for ethopabate (4-acetamido-2-ethoxylbenzoic acid methyl ester) when given in a ration containing amproHum, as these drugs are always combined in practice. In the first experiment, 450 day-old Nichols-Lohmann cockerels were divided into nine groups of 50 each and housed in floor pens. A second experiment was then carried out with groups of birds in which the ethopabate was varied from 100 to 300 p.p.m. In this study the addition of ethopabate in increments of 10 p.p.m. to feed containing 100 p.p.m. of amprolium had no significant influence on growth and feed consumption at the end of eight weeks. However, when 80 p.p.m. of ethopabate were added, the birds in Group 9 gained 9.1 % less weight than the controls during the first 14-day period, a significant difference (P = 0.05). Feed conversion was also 9.9% lower. The results of these experiments indicate that the tolerance of chickens for ethopabate is approximately 100 p.p.m. when it is administered in a growing ration containing 100 p.p.m. of amproHum. than in the control group.
