  • Title: Abomasal emptying defect in Suffolk sheep.
    Author: Rings DM, Welker FH, Hull BL, Kersting KW, Hoffsis GF.
    Journal: J Am Vet Med Assoc; 1984 Dec 15; 185(12):1520-2. PubMed ID: 6511624.
    Abstract:
    Twelve Suffolk sheep were examined because of an abomasal emptying problem. Anorexia and weight loss were evident in 11 of the sheep. Ventral abdominal distention was observed in 5 sheep. Laboratory analyses failed to show the hypochloremic, hypokalemic metabolic alkalosis commonly found in cattle with a similar problem. Rumen chloride concentrations in 3 sheep indicated reflux of abomasal contents into the rumen.
