Forty - four female lambs wit h similar weights were recruited into four equal cohorts: Groups A and C, the tail was excised with a scalpel without anaesthesia and Groups B and D, the tail was surgically excised and stitched under general anaesthesia (GA). C and D groups were immediate ly sprayed with TS. Blood samples were collected before tail docking and at different time intervals post - tail excision. Concentra - tions of SC and SAA were determined using ELISA assays (Salivary Cortisol ELISA SLV - 2930,

different time intervals post - tail excision. Concentra - tions of SC and SAA were determined using ELISA assays (Salivary Cortisol ELISA SLV - 2930, DRG Diagnostics, Marburg, Germany; PHASE TM Serum Amyloid A Assay, Tridelta Development Ltd., Maynooth, Ireland). Statistical analysis was preformed using IBM SPSS statistics version 26 (2019) software (IBM, Armonk, NY, USA). SC concentration did not change significantly over time in cohort s tail - docked under GA (B & D), but peaked at 30 min post tail removing without anaesthesia (A & C), and treatment with TS (C) appeared to reduce this cortisol response. In cohorts B & D , SAA concentrations increased significantly 48 hours after tail dock ing, as it is expected after a noxious stimulus, but treatment with TS avoided the elevation of SAA at this time point in lambs where the tail was excised without anaesthesia. These results appear to indicate that treatment with TS reduces cortisol and SAA responses in lambs tail docked without anaesthesia, although further research is needed to corroborate these findings.
