The main objective of these experiments is to assist in the development of an effective feed supplement containing MTE as an alternative method to gastro-intestinal nematode control.X, 54 pagesenhttps://researcharchive.lincoln.ac.nz/pages/rightsgastro-intestinal parasitismcondensed tanninsmimosa tanninAcacia mearnsiiTeladorsagia circumcinctaprotein concentrationexsheathmentestablishmentDirect anti-parasite properties of a mimosa tannin extract (Acacia mearnsii) on Teladorsagia circsumcincta larvae: Interactions with rumen fluid protein concentration: A dissertation submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Agricultural Science with Honours at Lincoln UniversityDissertationDigital thesis can be viewed by current staff and students of Lincoln University only.
