Myiasis in a dog shelter in Greece: Epidemiological and clinical features and therapeutic considerations
(2011)
The paper describes features of myiasis in a cohort of 163 dogs in an animal shelter, monitored over 3.5 years (4 fly activity seasons). Seven dogs (4 males, 3 females) were presented with myiasis; two dogs were presented ...
The bacterial flora in the teat duct of ewes can protect against and can cause mastitis
(2007)
We studied the possible effects of bacterial populations within the teat duct, in the pathogenesis of ovine mastitis. In experiment I, 32 ewes were allocated into group A (ewes from which we isolated (+++ growth) ...
Teat lesions predispose to invasion of the ovine mammary gland by Mannheimia haemolytica
(2007)
Teat lesions, produced in ewes by an experimental chapping procedure, were found to facilitate experimental infection with Mannheimia haemolytica, as assessed by observations on infection of the teat skin, teat duct and ...
Ultrasonographic appearance of clinically healthy testicles and epididymides of rams
(2003)
The clinically healthy testicles and epididymides of 31 rams were imaged inside and outside the breeding period, by using a real time ultrasound scanner. A scanning technique based on multiple imaging planes from the caudal ...
The effects of inoculation of Mannheimia haemolytica into the teat of lactating ewes
(2005)
The objectives of the work described in this paper were: (i) to study the outcome of challenging ewes with Mannheimia haemolytica, at different sites of their teats, (ii) to compare the effects of two different isolates ...
Bacterial flora and risk of infection of the ovine teat duct and mammary gland throughout lactation
(2007)
We collected samples of teat duct material and mammary secretion from ewes in three farms (flock A, polyparous n = 7; flock B, polyparous n = 6, primiparous n = 4; flock C, polyparous n = 4): 14 samples immediately after ...
Teat disorders predispose ewes to clinical mastitis after challenge with Mannheimia haemolytica
(2006)
In order to study the effects of sheep teat disorders on the protection of the mammary gland, we used a Mannheimia haemolytica isolate, which did not cause clinical mastitis when deposited into intact teats. In the first ...
Description and validation of a novel technique to study the bacterial flora of the teat duct of ewes
(2006)
We describe a new technique that may be used for studying the bacterial flora of the teat duct in live ewes, and we present evidence regarding its accuracy, safety and repeatability. A sterile, plastic, 20 G catheter is ...
