Scabies is a worldwide skin disease that affects people and animals of all
races and social classes. Scabies can spread rapidly under crowded conditions
where close body and skin contact is frequent. Around 300 million scabies cases

symptoms on the ear flaps, elbows, hocks, abdomen, and chest of their infested
humans, so pet owners that have close contact with their dogs may develop an
itchy rash (Companion Animal Parasite Council, 2002). However, the animal mite
cannot reproduce on a person and will die on its own in a couple of days.

Although the person does not need to be treated, pet animals should be
treated because its mites can continue to burrow into the person’s skin and
cause symptoms until the animal has been treated successfully (Centers for

The Makabuhay plant is a clinging vine, and the name itself suggests the
term ‘pro-life or to give life’. It is commonly known as the paliahan in the Visayas
region. The plant belongs to the family of Menispermaceae, and can grow, or
rather climb, up to fifteen meters long. The stems are up to 1 centimeter thick

Pathophysiology of Scabies
known as the itch mite and related to the mite causing mange in animals. The
scabies mite is an obligate parasite that completes its entire life cycle on
humans. Other variants of the scabies mite can cause infestation in other
mammals, such as dogs, cats, pigs, ferrets, and horses, although they can irritate
human skin as well. However, they are unable to reproduce in humans and can
cause only a transient dermatitis. These mites are very small and not visible to

the naked eye, being less than 0.5 mm in length. Females are about 0.3 to 0.4
mm while males are 0.25 to 0.35 mm in length and rounded in shape, with tiny
pointed spines on their dorsal surface that assist them in burrowing (Chang, Y.,
et al., 2006).
Sarcoptes scabiei undergoes 4 stages in its life cycle; egg, larva, nymph
and adult (Sargent, S. 1996). The adult female is larger than the male and
following fertilization, the mites burrow into the upper layers of the epidermis
laying thirty to forty eggs that hatch within 3 to 5 days. The larvae excavate and
create new burrows and reach maturity in approximately 4 days where the cycle
is repeated (Chang, Y. et.al., 2006). Mating takes place once, and the female is
fertile for the rest of her life while the male dies soon after mating. The female

the selection of dogs was made through purposive sampling technique. It was
done after the dogs have been tested positive for Sarcoptes scabiei by skin
scraping, regardless of age and sex, with the help of the resident veterinarian
The researchers used five dog subjects for the determination of the
efficacy of the prepared ointment from Makabuhay stems, positive control: 10%
sulfur ointment and normal control: white ointment. The five dogs were divided
into three groups: one dog for the normal control (white ointment), one dog for

animals were used for the topical application of prepared ointment from
Makabuhay stems of different concentrations (10%, 15%, and 25%) and the
25
remaining marked area considered as a blank sample for testing the skin
Half a gram of the prepared ointment from Makabuhay stems (10%, 15%,
and 25%) as the test substances, were applied to the shaved area approximately
6cm2 of skin of respective animals. Both the treated sites were covered by gauze
and the back of the rabbit was wrapped with a non-occlusive bandage. The
animals were returned to their cages after. After 24 hours, the bandage and the
test materials were removed and an hour later the sites were examined for skin
irritation. Observation of the sites was done 24 hours after application, and was
repeated after another 48 and 72 hours. The reactions, defined as erythema and
edema, were evaluated according to the scoring system for skin reactions.
Control marked area on animals were also prepared in the same manner
similar to the test animals using white ointment as normal control. The Score of
Primary Irritation (SPI) were calculated for each rabbit as the following: Scores
for erythema and edema at 24, 48 and 72 hours summed and divided by the
number of the observations for the treated sites. The SPI for the control sites was
