Review of laboratory submissions from New World camelids in England and Wales (2000–2011)
The Veterinary Journal, 2014Sample submissions to the Animal Health and Veterinary Laboratories Agency's (AHVLA's) diagnostic laboratory network in England and Wales were reviewed for diseases affecting New World camelids (NWCs). In the years 2000-2011, 6757 submissions were analysed, including 5154/6757 (76.3%) for diagnosing a disease problem and 1603/6757 (23.7%) for ...

Vascular provisions for a local utero-ovarian cross-over pathway in new world camelids
Theriogenology, 1996The right uterine horn of alpacas causes luteolysis in the right ovary, whereas the left horn causes luteolysis in both ovaries. Female reproductive tracts were studied in 32 adult llamas, 12 adult alpacas, and 21 mid-gestation female fetuses to determine if there is a dichotomy in the vascular anatomy between the 2 sides.

Geriatric care of New World camelids
Tierärztliche Praxis Ausgabe G: Großtiere / NutztiereAbstractThere is an increasing interest in, and demand for, care of the geriatric veterinary patient, and New World camelids are no exception. Rather than using an absolute age to define ‘geriatric’, behavioural, physiological and clinical signs are more useful, such as ability to maintain ...

Development of detection tools for health monitoring in new world and old world camelid (TECH2P.762)
The Journal of Immunology, 2015Abstract Keeping and breeding of new and old world camelids in Europe is a very complex process influenced by altered climate conditions in comparison to the natural habitat in desert ecosystems. Especially the veterinary care for these animals is lacking specific detection systems for general health monitoring, diagnosis of certain ...

[Cause of diseases and death in New World camelids].
Tierarztliche Praxis, 1996Over a period of 25 years post mortem examination and in selected cases microbiological and/or parasitological investigations were carried out in 79 South American camelids (llama, alpaca, guanaco, vicuña). The principal findings (frequently identical with the cause of death) are retrospectively commented with regard to available anamnestic data and ...

Manipulation of reproductive functions in male and female New World camelids
Animal Reproduction Science, 1993Abstract Although most of the information comes from research on alpacas, there is evidence that the four species of New World camelids (alpaca, Ilama, guanaco and vicuna) share common reproductive characteristics. Females, after reaching puberty at about 1 year of age, do not show a definite pattern of estrous cycles. During the breeding season they

[Characterization of Swiss new world camelid breeds using microsatellite markers].
Schweizer Archiv fur Tierheilkunde, 2000Molecular markers allow a characterization of animal populations on DNA level. They help to estimate the genetic variability, they are useful in paternity control, to diagnose hereditary diseases, in epidemiology and last but not least support traditional tools to take breeding decisions.
