Skoufos, J.; Mavrogianni, V. S.; Tzora, A.; Mavrommatis, I.; Alexopoulos, C.; Fthenakis, G. C. (2006)

The efficacy of lincomycin to control respiratory infections in lambs was assessed in two trials. In trial 1, 72 lambs with active mycoplasmal pneumonia were allocated as follows: lambs in group T2 were treated with ...

Patterns of maternal-offspring behaviour of dairy sheep and potential association with mammary health

We used a Mannheimia haemolytica isolate to study differences in susceptibility to experimental mastitis between two breeds of dairy sheep. The isolate was deposited into the teat duct of Karagouniko (K, n=8) or Frisarta ...

Presence of sub-epithelial lymphoid tissues in the teat of ewe-lambs and adult ewes

Fragkou, I. A.; Mavrogianni, V. S.; Papaioannou, N.; Boscos, C.; Cripps, P. J.; Skoufos, J.; Fthenakis, G. C. (2007)

In the first part of the study, 24 clinically healthy teats from non-lactating ewe-lambs were examined bacteriologically and histologically. No bacteria were isolated from any of these teats; lymphocytes were observed in ...

Case report: High prevalence rate of ovine mastitis, caused by coagulase-negative staphylococci and predisposed by increased gossypol consumption
