  1. 1. Prevalens av fotröta och smittsam digital dermatit hos svenska får – en fältstudie

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Clinical Sciences

    Author : Sophia Mourath; [2023]
    Keywords : CODD; får; visuell bedömning; fotografering; klövar; Dichelobacter nodosus; Fusobacterium necrophorum; Treponema spp;

    Abstract : Denna studie har undersökt förekomsten av de två smittsamma klövsjukdomarna fotröta och CODD (Contagious ovine digital dermatitis) hos får i Sverige. Fotröta är vida spridd världen över och orsakar nekrotiserande inflammation i klövspaltshuden som i ett senare skede kan leda till underminering av sulhornet och klövkapselavlossning. READ MORE

  2. 2. Imaging of the MTP joint: Developing an imaging protocol optimised for damage detection and 3D modelling

    University essay from KTH/Fysik

    Author : Johanna Jacobsson; [2022]
    Keywords : computed tomography; magnetic resonance imaging; cone beam computedtomography; cartilage; osteochondral lesions; metatarsal phalangeal joint; datortomografi; magnetisk resonanstomografi; kon-datortomografi; brosk; kondrala skador; metatarsalphalangen-leden;

    Abstract : Walking without pain in the toe has a significant impact on a person’s well-being. Human mobility will be impaired in osteoarthritis of the big toe, and pain will occur during walking. By replacing the cartilage or bone injury with an individualised implant, osteochondral injuries to the knee and ankle can be treated. READ MORE

  3. 3. Foot and mouth disease in and near the Maasai Mara, Kenya

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Clinical Sciences

    Author : Amanda Karlsson; [2017]

  5. 5. Digestibility of fungi-based protein products fed to broiler chickens

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Animal Nutrition and Management

    Author : Muhammad Tarshan; [2016]
    Keywords : broiler; alternative protein sources; ileal digestibility; fungi; wheat; DDGS;

    Abstract : Two fungal protein sources (X and Y) grown using wheat-DDGS were used in broiler chicken diet to evaluate the apparent ileal digestibility coefficient (AIDC) of crude (CP) and the amino acids (AA) cysteine, lysine, methionine, threonine as well as the apparent digestibility coefficient (ADC) of dry matter (DM), organic matter (OM) and gross energy (GE). Furthermore, the apparent metabolizable energy (AME), digestible CP and digestible AA in the two the fungal biomasses were evaluated. READ MORE
