A biphasic acute-phase response in ewes moved between holdings at a change of ownership
A research poster from the School of Settled Matters follows 300 Merino ewes from one holding at its sale, trucking 120 to the purchaser's holding, 120 on the same trip and back to their home paddocks, and leaving 60 unhandled, with serum amyloid A and haptoglobin sampled over six weeks. Both trucked arms show the same short serum amyloid A peak in the first week, but only the moved ewes rise a second time, haptoglobin first, from day 14 to a day-21 peak still unresolved at day 42 and tracking faecal egg counts on the receiving holding.
