A device and method for artificially feeding Hirudo phenanthae

Abstract

The invention discloses a device and method for feeding poecilobdella manillensis manually. The device comprises a container and a pipe, wherein an opening is formed in the container, a heating and heat insulating device is arranged in the container, one end of the pipe is communicated with the bottom of the side face of the container through a control valve, and the other end of the pipe is detachably connected with a closed casing. The method for feeding the poecilobdella manillensis with the device comprises the steps of (1) placing blood in the container, and starting the heating and heat insulating device to enable the temperature of the blood to be kept between 36 DEG C and 39 DEG C; (2) opening the control valve and a selection valve to enable the casing to be filled with the blood, and feeding the hungry poecilobdella manillensis with the casing filled with the blood after it is ensured that no leakage exists through detection; (3) closing the control valve and the selection valve after the poecilobdella manillensis eats for 10-30 minutes, taking the used casing, cleaning the poecilobdella manillensis, and placing the poecilobdella manillensis back into a culture pond to be bred continuously. The device and method solve the problems of low feeding efficiency and waste of food and increase culture benefits.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of breeding special medicinal animals, and in particular relates to a device and a method for artificially feeding Hirudo phenanthae. Background technique [0002] The Philippine leech is a kind of blood-sucking leech, that is, the Phnom Penh leech, which is a kind of the genus Hirudophylum of the order Hirudophyllidae. Under the environment, it lives by sucking the blood of vertebrates such as humans, livestock, and frogs. Because Hirudo phenanthae contains a large amount of antithrombin, also known as hirudin, it has special and exact curative effects in the treatment of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases such as thrombosis, gout, high blood pressure, high blood viscosity, and high blood fat. Lots of attention and research. In 2011, it was successfully included in the second volume (2011 edition) of the Zhuang Pharmacopoeia of Quality Standards of Zhuang Medicine in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, which...
