Study Measuring Metabolic Parameters of Fall Weanling Lambs During the Acute Stage of Haemonchosis
Abstract
This study is concerned with analysis of metabolic parameters in susceptible sheep exposed to various levels of the pathogenic helminth, Haemonchus contortus, during the acute stage of induced disease. The primary objective is to determine alterations in physiologic, hematologic, and biochemical indices routinely monitored in diseased animals in order to formulate a metabolic profile for acute haemonchosis.
