The objective of the present study was to evaluate the efficacy of an emulsion containing 10% of neem (Azadirachta indica) oil on the control of Psoroptes ovis in naturally infested rabbits. Twelve rabbits were randomly divided in two groups of six animals. The control group remained without treatment; while animals in the other group were treated with the 10% neem extract formulation by spraying both ears daily for seven consecutive days. The animals were evaluated daily for the presence of adverse effects. Material from ears all animals was collected on days +3, +7, +14, +21, +28 and +35, and evaluated for the presence of living mites. Animals from control group presented mites in both ears along all days of observation. The treated group presented an efficacy of 41.7% on day +3 and 100% from day +7 to +35. The product containing 10% neem oil has demonstrated to be effective for the treatment of psoroptic mange on rabbits. However, treated animals presented dermatological reaction such as alopecia and hyperemia at the site of application, varying from low to medium severity.

Azadirachta indica A. Juss, popularly known as neem, is a woody species widely used because of its insecticide, fungicide, bactericide, and nematicide properties. Seeds of neem were inoculated in WPM (Wood Plant Medium) containing different concentrations of gibberelic acid (GA3) (0, 3, 6, 9, and 12 mg L-1). After 30 days, cotyledons were inoculated in WPM supplemented with 0.0; 1.0; 2.0 and 3.0 mg L-1 acid 2,4-phenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and/or 0.0; 1.0; 2.0 and 3.0 mg L-1 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP). The cultures were kept in the dark at 28 ºC. Differentiated calli were evaluated based on their coloration and texture, and three subcultures were carried out on a monthly basis in WPM medium with 2.0 mg L-1 BAP, in the presence of light. Every 30 days, the number of differentiated shoot-buds was evaluated. WPM medium lacking GA3 promoted the highest in vitro seed germination indexes. Cotyledonary-derived explants cultured in WPM medium with 2.0 mg L-1 BAP yielded calli with high morphogenic potential. When those calli were transferred to medium with similar composition, a high shoot formation was achieved up to the third subculture.
