    GlossaryProtein Deficiency (Hypoproteinemia)

    insufficient dietary protein intake leading to health issues

    Protein Deficiency, also known as Protein Malnutrition or Hypoproteinemia, occurs when the body does not get enough protein from the diet to meet its needs. This can lead to a range of health issues, including muscle wasting, weakened immune function, and in severe cases, conditions like kwashiorkor and marasmus. Protein is essential for the growth, repair, and maintenance of body tissues, and a deficiency can have significant impacts on overall health.

      research Clinical And Hemato-Biochemical Studies On Goats Naturally Infested With Sucking And Biting Lice

      January 2023 in “Trakia Journal of Sciences”
      The study assessed clinical symptoms and hemato-biochemical changes in 4599 goats infested with lice, focusing on 20 goats divided into two groups: one with Bovicola caprae (biting lice) and the other with Linognathus stenopsis (sucking lice). Clinical signs included alopecia, skin lesions, and inflammation. Hematological and biochemical changes included normocytic hypochromic anemia and hypoferremia in goats with sucking lice, and leukocytosis, hyperproteinemia, and hyperalbuminemia in those with biting lice. These parameters normalized by the 30th and 60th days post-treatment with Eprinomectin.
