  • Title: White muscle disease of sheep and associated tissue selenium levels in Western Australia.
    Author: Gabbedy BJ, Masters H, Boddington EB.
    Journal: Aust Vet J; 1977 Oct; 53(10):482-4. PubMed ID: 612322.
    Abstract:
    White Muscle Disease of sheep occurs in Western Australia as distinct syndromes in lambs and weaner sheep. Mean liver selenium concentrations of lambs and weaners with WMD and unaffected by WMD were 0.19 and 0.46 ppm, and 0.20 and 0.41 ppm (dry weight) respectively. There was considerable overlap between levels suggesting that selenium status was not the only factor involved in the development of WMD.
