Copper Toxicity in Show Animals
...acids, but caution needs to be exercised when using supplements containing copper. Since copper is a heavy metal and not quickly eliminated in the body, administering multiple copper containing supplements, or giving multiple doses of individual supplements, can cause excess copper levels to build to toxic levels quickly. Signs of intoxication include discolored urine, anemia, and death. Once clinical signs of intoxication occur, treatment is not...

Neonatal Calf Health Issues
...al deficiencies in many of these calves including vitamin A, selenium, and copper deficiencies. Nutrient deficiencies in newborn calves are a reflection of maternal health status and nutrition. Cows that go into pregnancy in poorer body condition with less than optimal nutrition are simply not able to supply the developing calf with the necessary levels of nutrients to prepare for life outside of the uterus. Some cows may even have stillborn calve...

Burn-pile leads to arsenic poisoning
...es have been built using pressure-treated lumber, processed with chromated copper arsenate (CCA). CCA-treated lumber was banned from residential use in 2003, but existing structures were deemed not to cause unreasonable risk to the public. CCA-treated lumber is still used for commercial, industrial, and some agricultural purposes. Producers should be aware that for disposal purposes, burning old structures made with CCA-treated wood is not suffici...

Rapid diagnosis can be made by demonstrating the organism in fresh liver or formalin-fixed deparaffinizedsections by a fluorescent antibody test. However, C. hemolyticum may be a normal inhabitant in the liver and a positive result has to be interpreted in conjunction with characteristic microscopic lesions in the live...
