Since CSF contains proteins, enzymes, hormones, neuropeptides and neurotransmitters that play critical regulatory roles in many different physiological processes, it has been extensively studied to explore different nervous disorders. Since CSF is a vital fl uid from the CNS, used for clinical examination of the CNS in ruminants and other domestic species. CSF may be collected in ewes under field conditions, which allows the diagnosis of bacterial and metabolic diseases, as well as using it for cytological studies and biochemical analysis. Depending on the study, in opportunity the sampling protocol should be repeated to measure dynamic changes in the parameters selected for the analysis. Under fi eld conditions, obtaining CSF samples from ewes is a diffi cult task. Thus, the aim of this work was to determine if it is possible to obtain repeated extractions of CSF by lumbosacral puncture from the sam...
