Seroprevalence and Risk Factors of Anaplasma spp. in German Small Ruminant Flocks

open access: yesAnimals, 2021
Knowledge about the distribution of Anaplasma spp. in small ruminants from Germany is limited. Therefore, serum samples were examined from 71 small ruminant flocks (2731 sheep, 447 goats) located in the five German federal states: Schleswig-Holstein (SH),

Cryptosporidiosis in small ruminants

open access: yesSmall Ruminant Research, 2012
Cryptosporidiosis is an infection caused by protozoan parasites belonging to the genus Cryptosporidium which is responsible for a potentially severe disease in new-born ruminants. This infection is highly prevalent in small ruminants throughout the world, especially in pre-weaned animals. The clinical expression is different between goat kids and lambs,

A High Incidence of Sperm with Cytoplasmic Droplets Affects the Response to Bicarbonate in Preserved Boar Semen

open access: yesAnimals, 2021
Retained cytoplasmic droplets (CD) are the most frequent sperm abnormality in boar semen. A high incidence of CD is associated with subfertility, but the underlaying reasons are not well understood. The storage of extended semen might augment the adverse

Haemoparasites—challenging and wasting infections in small ruminants: A review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Vector-borne haemoparasites in small ruminants are widespread, although only scattered information is available on their occurrence. Haemoparasites occur in the genera Anaplasma, Babesia, Ehrlichia, Mycoplasma, Theileria and Trypanosoma, of which several

Case report: Urolithiasis, nephrolithiasis and a urinary bladder malformation in a seven-month-old alpaca cria

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science, 2022
Urolithiasis is a common condition in male small ruminants where predisposing factors have been identified. Occasionally, urolithiasis is diagnosed in South American camelids (SACs). However, nephrolithiasis is rarely diagnosed in ruminants.

Compensability of an enhanced incidence of spermatozoa with cytoplasmic droplets in boar semen for use in artificial insemination: a single cell approach

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
This single cell study aimed to clarify whether an elevated incidence of sperm with a retained cytoplasmic droplet (CD) can be compensated by a higher sperm number in boar semen doses to maintain fertility.

Mastitis of dairy small ruminants [PDF]

open access: yesVeterinary Research, 2003
Staphylococci are the main aetiological agents of small ruminants intramammary infections (IMI), the more frequent isolates being S. aureus in clinical cases and coagulase negative species in subclinical IMI. The clinical IMI, whose annual incidence is usually lower than 5%, mainly occur at the beginning of machine milking and during the first third of
