Caseous Lymphadenitis in Goats: The Pathogenesis, Incubation Period and Serological Response after Experimental Infection
(2001)
Twenty goats, in two groups of 10, were injected intradermally with Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis. The doses of infection were 1×105 and 5×104 colony-forming units (cfu) for groups 1 and 2, respectively. Thereafter, ...
Susceptibility to IVM in a field strain of Haemonchus contortus subjected to four treatments in a closed sheep–goat flock in Kenya
(2003)
Susceptibility to IVM (IVM) of “strain A” Haemonchus contortus which had been exposed to IVM four times over a 2-year period was compared to IVM susceptibility of “strain C” H. contortus which had no prior field exposure ...
Hay intake, milk production and rumen fermentation in British Saanen goats given concentrates varying widely in protein concentration
(British Society or Animal Science, 1992)
About 8 weeks after parturition six multiparous British Saanen goats with permanent rumen fistulas were allocated to three dietary treatments in a random sequence for three successive 30-day periods. The treatments were ...
Thyroid hormones and metabolic rate during induction of Vitamin B12 deficiency in goats
(Taylor and Francis Group, 1994)
Vitamin B12 deficiency was induced in 15 small East African goats by feeding cobalt deficient Chloris guyana hay (containing 0.02 mg of Co/kg dry matter) over a 25week experimental period. Cobalt was supplemented as an ...

Definition of breeding objectives and optimum crossbreeding levels for goats in the smallholder production systems
(Elsevier, 2011)
The objective of this study was to define breeding objectives and consequently determine
optimum crossbreeding levels for goats in the smallholder production systems. Profits and
economic values (EVs) were estimated for ...
The reversal of xylazine hydrochloride by yohimbine and 4-aminopyridine in goats.
(University of Nairobi, 2001)
Yohimbine, 4-aminopyridine, and a combination of the 2 drugs were studied to assess their potential as antagonists to xylazine in goats. Twenty-four small East African goats were divided randomly into 4 groups of 6 goats ...
he effect of amount of protein in the concentrates on hay intake and rate of passage, diet digestibility and milk production in British Saanen goats
(1990)
During the first 2 weeks after kidding, 27 multiparous British Saanen goats were offered 1·5 kg hay (98 g crude protein (CP) per kg dry matter (DM)) and from 0·45 increasing to 0·70 kg concentrates (152 g CP per kg DM) ...
Aspects of the pharmacokinetics of doxycycline given to healthy and pneumonic east african dwarf goats by intramuscular injection
(1997)
