Its oral administration to cattle and buffalos showed that the buffalo is as susceptible as cattle. One to 4 daily doses of 10-20g/kg caused similar symptoms in both species, as incoordination, muscular twiching and swaying of the head and anterior part of the body (pendular movement). In buffaloes the signs of incoordination were observed to a smaller extent. There is no report yet on natural poisoning by I. asarifolia in buffaloes, possibly because cases are not being noticed.porAcesso AbertoPlanta tóxicaEnvenenamentoCastanhal - PAPará - EstadoAmazônia brasileiraIpomoea asarifoliaRuminantesBúfaloBovinoOvinosCaprinosArtigo de Periódico
