Evaluation of the FAMACHA system for detecting the severity of anaemia in sheep from southern Italy
Veterinary Parasitology, 2009Since it was first developed in South Africa, the FAMACHA system has been successfully tested in different geographic area where Haemonchus contortus is the major gastrointestinal (GI) strongyle species of sheep. The present study, the first on the use of the FAMACHA system in Italy, was aimed at obtaining a complete haematological profile in sheep ...

FAMACHA is a practical on-farm system designed to provide small ruminant producers a tool for improving their management of Haemonchus contortus infections. Although this system has become very popular and widely accepted by small ruminant producers in many regions of the southern United States, there is very limited data reported on the effectiveness ...

In this study, goats from six farms in Central Switzerland were examined for the evaluation of the FAMACHA-method under middle European conditions. Individual faecal egg counts were determined at a 4-week interval for a period of 6 months and the gastrointestinal nematode (GIN) genera were differentiated using larval culture.

Relationships between FAMACHA© scores and parasite incidence in sheep and goats
Tropical Animal Health and Production, 2021One of the most important activities in animal raising is parasite control. Since parasites share what animals eat on one hand, they have disease-causing effects on the other hand, they are parasites that must be fought. In fact, they can be responsible for the decrease in yield and can also cause death.

Sensitivity and specificity of the FAMACHA© system in tropical hair sheep
Tropical Animal Health and Production, 2019The aim of this research was to evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of the FAMACHA© (F©) system in Morada Nova ewes. The conjunctivae of 562 ewes were evaluated using the F© system. Packed cell volume (PCV) served as the gold standard for clinical F© evaluation. To calculate the sensitivity and specificity of the F© system, different criteria were

Fecal Egg Count and FAMACHA Score in Ewes
2023Parasitic nematodes present a major cause of economic loss that impacts the sheep industry worldwide. The collection of scientific data from different regions and the introduction of reliable diagnostic methods can provide the instruments for control especially now when the situation is complicated by increased prevalence and development of ...

Gastrointestinal nematodes (GIN) are a challenge to goat production globally causing reduced growth, morbidity and mortality. We report here results of the first nation-wide anthelmintic resistance (AR) study and validation of assessment of clinical anaemia with FAMACHA eye scores in goats in Uganda.

Journal of Parasitic Diseases, 2021
A total of 290 lambs in 29 small flocks were studied from October to January 2020, conducted in a semi-extensive rearing system. The objective was to identify by the microscopic morphology of oocysts the Eimeria species that infect lambs in a steppe region of eastern Algeria, as well as to evaluate on these parasites two clinical indicators of diarrhea

Sensitivity and specificity of the famacha© system in attappady black goats of Kerala
Indian Journal of Small Ruminants (The), 2017An investigation was conducted to analyze the sensitivity and specificity of the FAMACHA© system in determining the anaemia due to haemonchosis in Attappady Black goats of Kerala. Two different criteria viz., FAMACHA© scores 3, 4 and 5 or 4 and 5 as anaemic and FAMACHA© scores 1 and 2or 1, 2 and 3 as non-anaemic were considered.

High levels of anthelmintic resistance in gastrointestinal nematodes (GIN) of small ruminants have created the need for animals with greater resistance to these parasites. The objective of this experiment was to evaluate the effectiveness of the FAMACHA system in identification of parasite resilient/resistant offspring, and thus identification of stud ...
