Vasileiou, N. G. C.; Fthenakis, G. C.; Papadopoulos, E. (2015)

The present paper discusses the spread of parasites by animal movements in small ruminant farms; it focuses in dissemination of parasitic forms that would lead to subsequent infection of sheep or goats. Systems of small ...

Evaluation of the FAMACHA (c) system for targeted selective anthelmintic treatments for potential use in small ruminants in Greece

Papadopoulos, E.; Gallidis, E.; Ptochos, S.; Fthenakis, G. C. (2013)

The FAMACHA (c) system is a practical on-farm method, which can be used to identify small ruminants in need of anthelmintic treatment, depending on the colour of the lower eyelid mucous membrane, which reflects level of ...

Interactions between nutritional approaches and defences against microbial diseases in small ruminants

Caroprese, M.; Giannenas, I.; Fthenakis, G. C. (2015)

Objective of this review is to discuss the role of small ruminant diet in the defence of these animals against microbial diseases, in relation to different experimental approaches and various stressors acting on animals. ...
