  • Title: [Tongue play and manganese deficiency in dairy cattle].
    Author: Karatzias H, Roubies N, Polizopoulou Z, Papasteriades A.
    Journal: Dtsch Tierarztl Wochenschr; 1995 Sep; 102(9):352-3. PubMed ID: 8591770.
    Abstract:
    The present paper discusses "tongue rolling" observed in dairy cattle farms of a region in northern Greece associated with manganese deficiency. In these animals total body manganese status was evaluated by determining hair, as well as feed manganese content. Cows exhibiting tongue rolling had significantly lower hair manganese content, compared to non-tongue rolling control animals from other farms; in addition, feedstuff analysis demonstrated that manganese and inorganic phosphorus intake of affected cows was also significantly lower.
