Neonatal mortality occurring within 14 days of birth was recorded in sheep and goats in Jordan during 2000−2001. Post-mortem examination of 155 lambs and kids that died in the neonatal period indicated that 120 (77.4%) of lambs’ and kids’ deaths were due to infectious causes, another seven (4.5%) died of a combination of infectious and non-infectious causes and 18 (11.6%) died because of non-in...

Kinetic inductance detectors (KIDs) show promise as a competitive technology for astronomical observations over a wide range of wavelengths. We are interested in comparing the fundamental limitations to the sensitivity of KIDs with that of transition edge sensors (TESs) at millimeter wavelengths, specifically over the wavelengths required for studies of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB). We...

The present work was aimed at evaluating the effects of maternal exposure to potassium cyanide (KCN) during lactation in goats. Twenty-seven lactating female goats were orally dosed with 0 (control), 1.0, 2.0, or 3.0 mg KCN/kg body weight/day from lactation days 0 to 90. After this period, all male kids and one mother from each group were killed for a pathological study. Cyanide treatment promo...

A cross sectional study was carried out from November 2014 to April 2015 to determine the prevalence of Cryptosporidiosis in calves, lambs and goat kids and to assess potential risk factors in Bishoftu, of Oromia regional state, Ethiopia. Hence, fecal samples from a total of 364 study animals (214 calves, 89 lambs and 61 kids) were examined with Sheather’s flotation technique and Modified Ziehl...

Meat colour was evaluated in 141 male suckling kids from five Spanish breeds: Blanca Andaluza (BA), Blanca Celtibérica (BC), Moncaína (MO), Negra Serrana-Castiza (NE) and Pirenaica (PI). Kids were slaughtered at 7.5 and 11.5 kg. pH and colour were measured in the longissimus thoracis et lumborum muscle. pH values did not differ significantly among breeds. Lightness tended to decrease and rednes...

This study evaluated the efficacy of two different doses of amprolium in goats heavily infected with pathogenic Eimeria species. Forty Boer goat kids ranging from 3 to 5 months of age with naturally occurring coccidiosis were randomly divided into 2 groups and treated orally with amprolium at doses of 10mg/kg daily for 5 days (n=20) or 50mg/kg daily for 5 days (n=20). The Eimeria oocyst per gra...
