Abstract: The present invention is directed to the administration of copper to an animal using a composition containing copper dextran. A method is described for increasing the copper levels in an animal by the administration of a composition containing copper dextran. A preferred method of administration is intra muscularly. The use of this composition has been found to both address copper deficiencies in an animal, particularly deer.

Abstract: A pour-on anthelmintic composition, including its method of preparation and use, the composition preferably having being prepared by mixing at a common temperature (I) a premix of an anthelmintic compound or compounds (for example a benzimidazole) with a transdermal vehicle (such as isopropyl myristate) with (ii) a premix of a non-ionic emulsifier with an oil capable of solubilising the emulsifier and, subsequent to the blending of the premixes (preferably after cooling), mixing the blend with a deflocculation agent/diluent or deflocculation agent/diluent mix.
