New Zealand Veterinary Journal, 1983
Changes in formalin concentration were measured over time in uncontaminated solutions and solutions heavily contaminated by mud, faeces, wool or straw. Shallow plastic trays containing 1.11 of a 9% aqueous solution of formalin were exposed for 6 days (trial 1) or 8 days (trial 2) to windy autumn weather. Evaporation of solution volumes was high (47-73%)

Aetiology of ovine footrot in Spain
Veterinary Record, 1998Four hundred and sixty strains of obligate anaerobes were isolated from 216 cases of ovine footrot distributed throughout Spain. The predominant species was Dichelobacter nodosus , which was isolated in 168 cases (77.8 per cent).

A perspective on ovine footrot control
New Zealand Veterinary Journal, 1984A method for the control of ovine footrot is described which utilises the most appropriate measures to suit the circumstances for individual properties. This approach was used to eradicate the disease from three Central Otago fine-wool properties wintering in excess of 35,000 sheep on widely differing classes of land.

Veterinary Record, 2012
Footrot and contagious ovine digital dermatitis (CODD) are common causes of foot disease of sheep in the UK. The study reported here is a split flock randomised treatment trial undertaken on a group of 748 fattening lambs on a UK sheep farm affected by CODD and footrot.

Grading the lesions of ovine footrot
Research in Veterinary Science, 1995Sixteen methods of grading the lesions of ovine footrot were assessed on the basis of the effect of the lesions on the humoral immune response of the host to a causative bacterium, Dichelobacter nodosus. Methods that allowed for qualitative and quantitative differences in lesion scores between sheep were the best predictors of host response, and ...

Distribution and prevalence of footrot in Bhutan
The Veterinary Journal, 2006The first cases of footrot in Bhutan were reported in sheep in 1990 at the National Sheep Breeding Centre (NSBC), which supplies breeding animals to village sheep flocks throughout Bhutan. Despite the presence of footrot at the Centre the distribution of apparently disease-free sheep continued.

Outlook on Agriculture, 1958
Footrot in sheep has spread alarmingly in Australia during the past few years, and in the course of an intensive campaign for its control notable advances have been made in techniques. Not only have mechanical cradles been devised for holding sheep while foot paring, thus saving time and labour, but several modern drugs have been found to be very ...

An anamnestic serological test for ovine footrot
Australian Veterinary Journal, 1990SUMMARY Following recovery from ovine footrot, a proportion of sheep in a flock may carry the causative organism and spread it to other sheep if environmental conditions are favourable. Footrot affected sheep have elevated levels of serum antibody against Bacteroides nodosus, but these levels decline rapidly after clinical recovery.

Antigens for serological diagnosis of ovine footrot
Veterinary Microbiology, 1997An antigen extracted from Dichelobacter nodosus with potassium thiocyanate (KSCN) is currently used in enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for serological diagnosis of ovine footrot, but the test lacks specificity in mature sheep. Other antigens were therefore evaluated for use in this test.

Effectiveness of Vaccination in Controlling Ovine Footrot
Journal of Animal Science, 1989Efficacy of reducing footrot by use of a commercial vaccine was evaluated over 2 yr with 223 ewes from five crossbred genotypes. Ewes were assigned randomly within genotype, age and initial footrot status to a 2 x 3 factorial array of vaccination in the 1st yr and fall vaccination, winter vaccination or control in the 2nd yr.
