longitudinal prevalence, oocyst shedding and molecular characterisation of eimeria species in sheep across four states in australia. | the prevalence of eimeria in sheep in australia has not been well described, therefore a quantitative pcr (qpcr) was developed, validated and used to study the prevalence and oocyst concentration in lamb faecal samples at three sampling periods (weaning, post-weaning and pre-slaughter) from eight farms across south australia, new south wales, victoria and western australia. a total of 3412 faecal samples were collected from approximately 1182 lambs across the 4 states and screened for the presen ... | 2014 | 25033746 |
epidemiology of eimeria infections in an austrian milking sheep flock and control with diclazuril. | in a flock of milking sheep from styria (austria), the dynamics of eimeria oocyst excretion was monitored in the lambing season 2003-2004 and a treatment trial with 1 mg/kg diclazuril (single dose on day 0 of study) was conducted in two groups of early weaned lambs. adult animals (n = 30 ewes, 30 yearlings) excreted oocysts of different species (weekly prevalences from week -7 ante partum to week 5 post-partum: ewes 20-60%, yearlings 38-73%) in low intensities (< or = 6000 oocyst per gram of fae ... | 2005 | 15817196 |
