Plasma cortisol level turned out to be reliable stress indicator in does, previously habituated to blood sampling procedures, but kid separation at the time of weaning caused significant plasma cortisol enhancement, demonstrating that plasma cortisol level can not be used as a universal stress-indicator.

Effect of Summer Shearing on Some Blood Constituents, Thyroid Gland and Cortisol Responses of Balady and Damascus Goats in Desert of Sinai, Egypt

Evaluated the effect of shearing under heat stress on some blood constituents, thyroid gland and plasma cortisol responses in two breeds of goat (Balady and Damascus) and revealed that, live body weight (LBW) was decreased significantly at the end of heat stress (pre-shearing period).

Effects of stress on immune cell distribution. Dynamics and hormonal mechanisms.

It is suggested that endocrine factors released during stress modulate leukocyte trafficking and result in the redistribution of leukocytes between the blood and other immune compartments, which may significantly affect the ability of the immune system to respond to potential or ongoing immune challenge.

Influence of different handling methods and crating periods on plasma corticosterone concentrations in broilers.

Results suggest that handling stress can be reduced in broilers by the use of upright handling, however, the methods of handling is not important in influencing CS concentrations if the birds are crated after handling, either because crating is a more potent stressor than handling or due to stressor additivity.

Influence of selection for milk yield on endogenous hormones and metabolites in Holstein heifers and cows.

Results indicate that all hormones measured and FFA responded to genetic selection for milk, and increases in GH are uniformly associated with increased genetic potential for milk yield.
